Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chopped chocolate pieces
  • 1 cup non-dairy Greek yogurt (vanilla-flavored recommended)
  • 1/2 cup sweetener of choice (sugar-free, white, or brown sugar)
  • 1/2 cup preferred milk (such as unsweetened almond milk)

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup regular or gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Optional Add-Ins

  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Pan and Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, making sure the paper extends over the edges to allow for easy removal of the brownies. Set the pan aside.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Combine Wet Ingredients: Place the chopped chocolate pieces in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, stirring intermittently until fully melted and smooth. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes. Add the non-dairy Greek yogurt and sweetener to the melted chocolate and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Transfer this mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients and Combine with Wet Ingredients: To the chocolate mixture, add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter. Pour in the preferred milk and mix well until fully incorporated. If using, fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  4. Bake the Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating the brownies are baked through.
  5. Cool the Brownies: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Carefully lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper edges and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Use non-dairy Greek yogurt to keep the recipe dairy-free and reduce fat content.
  • You can substitute the sweetener for any zero-calorie or sugar-free alternative suitable for baking.
  • To make gluten-free brownies, be sure to use a certified gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
  • Optional chocolate chips add extra texture and richness but can be omitted for fewer calories.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For an even fudgier texture, slightly underbake the brownies by a couple of minutes.
