My Mother sent me a recipe for a 37 calorie brownies a few weeks ago and I’ve been wanting to try making them. However I didn’t have all the fat free ingredients they called for so I had to trace back to the original recipe to see what they used.I was able to track down the original recipe for 100 calorie brownies from the Londoner. I adapted this original recipe to be gluten free and to match what I had on hand. Also I love chocolate chips in brownies so I added a few Enjoy Life mini-chips to this recipe. When I was completely done adapting the recipe the brownies ended up being 76 calories. I don’t normally look up nutrition information but since the allure of this recipe is how few calories it has, I’m posting the nutrition information:

The texture of these brownies are very unique. My sister described them as “chalky”. However if you are on a low calorie diet you may enjoy them as a special treat. One other thing I noticed was that because I had granny smith applesauce on hand the brownies were actually quite tart. I accidentally left the egg out of the batter when I made them. However they held together quite nicely. So if you are looking for an egg free alternative you can go ahead and just leave the egg out without any consequences.

I have cut these brownies into 12 pieces. I typically cut an 8x8 pan of brownies into 12 or 16 pieces. If you chose to cut these into 9 pieces the brownies would be about 100 calories. Also if you chose to leave out the chocolate chips and still cut them into 12 pieces the brownies would be just under 50 calories.
