Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup vanilla yogurt (Greek yogurt recommended)
  • 1/2 cup sugar of choice (white, brown, or sugar-free)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (gluten free if needed)
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (unsweetened almond milk recommended)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips of choice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set it aside to prepare for the batter.
  2. Melt Chocolate and Mix Wet Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped chocolate by microwaving in short bursts until smooth. Let the melted chocolate rest for 1-2 minutes. Add the vanilla yogurt and sugar to the melted chocolate and whisk everything together until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Transfer this mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: To the chocolate mixture, add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Stir gently until just combined to avoid overmixing, which can toughen the brownies.
  4. Incorporate Milk and Chocolate Chips: Pour in the milk and mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and fully blended. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips carefully to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  5. Bake the Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs, showing the brownies are cooked but still fudgy.
  6. Cool: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute vanilla yogurt with plain Greek yogurt, but the flavor will be less sweet, so consider adjusting sugar accordingly.
  • Choose your preferred type of sugar or a sugar substitute to customize sweetness and dietary needs.
  • Use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version, ensuring all other ingredients comply if strict gluten avoidance is necessary.
  • The milk choice can be dairy or any plant-based milk, just make sure it’s unsweetened to control sweetness.
  • Chocolate chips are optional but add extra texture and flavor to the brownies.
  • Do not overbake to maintain moist and fudgy texture.
