Low-fat Baileys Chocolate Chunk Brownies
Yields about 16 small brownies. Recipe adapted from Cooking Light.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: About 18 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- Dash of salt
- 2 tablespoons Musselman’s unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon Baileys Irish Cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- About 2/3 cup chopped white chocolate (you want chunks), divided
- 1/2 teaspoon canola oil
- Green food dye
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 x 8 glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, beat the butter, sugar, eggs, Baileys, vanilla and applesauce together. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix to combine. Stir in 1/3 cup white chocolate chunk pieces.
- Pour the batter into the greased pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for about 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Let cool completely.
- Heat remaining white chocolate in a microwave safe dish for about 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds. Add oil to the chocolate and stir (this will make it thinner so it’s easier to glaze). Add food dye.
- Glaze the brownies with the green white chocolate and enjoy!
