Weight Watchers Wednesday

I reached my lifetime goal this week!! YAY! I am overjoyed. Now, I just have to stay within two pounds up or down for six weeks, and then I will no longer have to pay to attend the meetings. Woo-freakin'-hoo!

Okay... on to this week's recipe: Chocolate Mint Brownies

POINTS® Value: 3 Servings: 24 Preparation Time: 15 min Cooking Time: 35 min Level of Difficulty: Easy

Replacing regular butter with apple butter makes these brownies much lower in fat, as well as moist and rich.

Ingredients

	1 cup(s) cake flour, sifted
	1 cup(s) unsweetened cocoa
	1/4 tsp table salt
	1 cup(s) fat-free egg substitute
	1 cup(s) packed brown sugar, dark-variety
	3/4 cup(s) dark corn syrup
	3/4 cup(s) apple butter
	2 tbsp vegetable oil
	1 oz unsweetened baking chocolate square(s), melted
	36 piece(s) Cambridge Brands Junior Mints, candies, chopped (about 6 small boxes)

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
  
  
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa and salt. In another large bowl, whisk together egg substitute, sugar, corn syrup, apple butter, oil and melted chocolate. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just blended.
  
  
• Pour batter into prepared baking pan and sprinkle with candies. Bake until firm, about 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting into 24 squares. Yields 1 square per serving.

Enjoy!
