It is my Birthday today! Sharing a recipe for healthy Birthday Low Fat Brownies!

3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup butter
8 egg whites (fattier version would be 4 whole eggs instead)
12 Tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1 1/2 cups sugar (may use less if you like)
2 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup soy flour
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Mix applesauce, butter and cocoa powder over low heat well.  Add and mix well to remaining ingredients.

Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Note:  Traditional brownie recipes do have a lot of sugar.  Feel free to reduce sugar content, and replace the butter with a healthier fat substitute if you like.  Remember, it's okay to splurge every once in a while, if you like!
