Better-For-You Chocolate Brownies: The High-Protein Greek Yogurt Secret

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides, and lightly grease.
2. 2

   In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and well combined.
3. 3

   Beat in the eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract and melted butter.
4. 4

   In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
5. 5

   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. 6

   Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
7. 7

   Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached but no wet batter.
8. 8

   Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting out and cutting into squares. This is crucial for fudginess and clean cuts.
