Volume 3, Number 38 - February 15, 2002
Surgar Dusted Mocha Brownies

 


Ingredients: 
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
4 tablespoons light margarine (1/4 cup)
1 tablespoon instant coffee crystals
1 cup sugar
Egg substitute equivalent to 2 eggs, or 2 eggs
1/4 cup prune baby food
2 teaspoons vanilla
Vegetable oil spray
2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions:    
Preheat oven to 350° F.

In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Set aside. In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt margarine.

Add coffee crystals and stir until dissolved. 

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Using a wooden spoon, add sugar, egg substitute, prune baby food, and vanilla to coffee mixture. Stir until well combined.

Fold cocoa mixture into sugar mixture until well combined.

Spray an 8 × 8 × 2-inch cake pan with vegetable oil spray. Spoon batter into baking pan.

Bake, uncovered, for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out almost clean (it should have a few fudgy crumbs on it).

Cool brownies in the pan on a wire rack. Sift powdered sugar over brownies.

Cook’s Tip: For a decorative topping, place a doily on top of the brownies before sifting powdered sugar. Remove doily before cutting brownies.
