S’Amour Brownies
This Valentine's Day, prepare these low-fat, low-cal brownies for your king or queen of hearts.
| 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
|
1/4 cup vegetable oil |
| 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar |
|
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
| 1/2 cup granulated sugar |
|
3/4 cup mini-marshmallows |
| 1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
|
3 whole (5" x 2 1/2") low-fat honey graham crackers |
| 1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
|
4 large egg whites broken in small pieces |
| 1 large egg |
|
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch square pan with foil, letting ends extend above the pan on two sides. Spray foil in pan with nonstick cooking spray. Mix cocoa, sugars, flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Add egg whites, egg, oil and vanilla and mix until blended.
Stir in 1/2 cup each of the marshmallows and broken crackers. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. Bake 10 minutes. Sprinkle remaining marshmallows and graham crackers over top, pressing them gently until partially submerged in batter. Bake 18 to 20 minutes longer until marshmallows on top are golden brown.
Cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Lift foil by ends to a cutting board. Peel off foil and cut into squares. Makes 16 S'Amour squares.
