Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips optional
  • 1/2 cup walnuts optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 8" x 8" pan with aluminum foil, or parchment paper, draping some over the edges. Spray foil with baking spray.
  • Add semi-sweet chocolate chips to a microwavable mixing bowl. Microwave on half power for 1 minute. Stir. Continue to microwave at half power, in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until chips are melted. Add vanilla. Set aside to cool to almost room temperature.
  • Add flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and cocoa to a mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
  • Add Greek yogurt to dry ingredients. Mix until incorporated.
  • Add melted chocolate to the brownie batter. Stir.
  • Pour and spread the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle milk chocolate chips and walnuts over the batter if desired.
  • Bake for 38-32 minutes. It will look underdone even when they are done. Be careful to not over-bake!

Notes

  • Whole Wheat flour may be used instead of all purpose flour.
  • You may use a different type of sweetener such as Splenda or Stevia instead of sugar. Follow package directions. I don't use those kinds of sweeteners so I can't really give great suggestions on how to substitute them.
  • Skip sprinkling chocolate chips on top of brownies for a healthier brownie.
