My friend, Trace, sent me a message pretty late one night asking what she should do about the terrible cravings she was having- I blame it on being a woman. We need chocolate in our lives, it just makes us better people!!! The sooner men learn this, the better.
With Valentines day just around the corner, I knew I had to come up with something to suit everyone who is on a diet. Hence the 30 calorie ‘death by chocolate’ protein brownies were born. I topped these brownies with a chocolate spread that I made, which will add another 11 calories to these beauts…but when they still come in at just over 40 calories a brownie, I would say, we have ourselves a winner!!!
