Low-Fat Low-Cholesterol Brownies

Brownies

Not sure if anyone out there besides myself needs to watch their cholesterol and fat intake and yet doesn’t want to give up their chocolate. A friend gave me this recipe some time ago, I make it all the time and love it. Easy to make easy on the bad stuff and easy to enjoy.

2 egg whites
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup flour
3 tbs cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt

Optional – walnuts or raisins or cranberries

Mix it all together and beat at medium for about 4 minutes. Stir in the optional ingredients.

Bake at 325 for about 25-30 minutes or so.

You can omit the whole egg entirely but use 4 whites, though it will be a tad bit flat.

Enjoy!
