Receta Extra Low-fat Brownies
Most brownies are fudgy and chocolately but this one is made of low-fat yoghurt, valrohna cocoa powder in place of semi-sweet chocolate and vegetable oil. These brownies have a chewy texture and the addition of cashew nuts gave them the extra crunch and aroma. The brownie that I made was quite low as Iused a 20cm square baking tray but you can definitely use a smaller baking tray (18cm) for a thicker brownie. I cut the brownie into 20 pieces for a modest sized but feel free to cut to a larger size as desired. Do remember not to over bake the brownies or they'll be too dry. Best serve warm with a cup of coffee and this is also good as a Christmas treat.
