Dear Readers,
For years I have been trying to find a brownie mix that is egg and dairy free. Many pre-made brownies that meet this criteria are dry, gritty, and pretty much lifeless. I could never consume the traditional brownies due to their high content of dairy and fat. Most of all I didn't want to because of the high calories attached to it. I knew there had to be something that tasted great and I didn't have to feel guilty eating it. I found this company called Cherrybrook Kitchens. There website is http://cherrybrookkitchen.com or I have found their products at Stop and Shop in the health section. The brownie mix is egg, nut, and dairy free. All I do is add 3/4 cup water, 2.5 tsp canola oil, 1/3 cup applesauce (instead of margarine). The box calls for margarine. So choose which ever ingredient you like.
After I cooked the brownie mixture for 16 minutes I have the most moist and tender brownie you will ever taste. It has a nice crunch from the small chocolate chips that hold their shape. Also, a sweet but not over powering chocolate decadence that melts in your mouth. It's satisfying at only 220 calories. You can accompany this treat with some fresh berries and a sprig of mint. Enjoy!
