Secretly healthy chocolate brownies with fudgy frosting

Secretly healthy chocolate brownies with fudgy frosting

Comments 2 comments

Friends, I am pretty excited about this new recipe! These brownies are so moist and fudgy, yet I didn’t use any butter nor refined sugar to make them. That must be some kind of miracle, right? The frosting is great too and will melt in your mouth, although it is so much healthier than regular buttercream frosting -and it is super easy to make too! The secret ingredient that allowed me not to use butter and to reduce the amount of sweetener in…

This recipe is full of flavor, very healthy, and everybody likes it! I made it for the first time over a year ago. I was driving home from work, and as the hungry foodie I am, I was listening to my favorite cooking show on the radio. I was just trying to figure out what I was going to cook for dinner, when they started describing this cod curry and it sounded really good. I had nothing with me to…

Here is a cookie recipe that I came up with by mixing up my sweet tooth cravings along with a lot of healthy ingredients that I found in my kitchen.

Here’s a good start with those double-chocolate-cookies made with natural sugar only (except for the one in the chocolate… But I am…

It feels nice to have a warm, filling and tasty meal before going  through a long day! I also like that there are so many different versions and flavors. Here is my favorite one of the moment. Makes…

Because apparently, old bananas forgotten at the bottom of your race-day backpack seems to turn into a habit at home (and also because we love love love cookies), here’s another recipe that allows you to use them ripe bananas for something good. On top of that, these cookies are made without butter or other shortening, and require only very little sugar. They make a great pre- or post-workout snack! Makes about 15 cookies: 2 ripe bananas 1 egg, yolk and…

In my quest for a healthy-yet-not-boring breakfast, here is my on-the-go version. These really soft cookies also make a great afternoon snack. They are better when eaten the same day they were baked, so you can make a lot and freeze most of them, then you just have to heat them in the oven for a few minutes whenever you feel like eating some. They are very lightly sweetened because that’s how I like my breakfast, but feel free to…
