Hope you love them!!

Made these and added a banana instead of sweetner did regular Choco chips cause it’s what I had and they still came out awesome.

Thank you for trying them!

Can you use fat free cottage cheese?

Sure!

Made these as dessert tonight. I didn’t have monk fruit sweetener on hand so I had to use regular sugar. These were tasty. I’ll definitely make them again to try with monk fruit sweetener

So happy to hear you loved them, Denice!!

I made these tonight, I haven’t tried them yet. Mine came out more dense looking and not as fudge or fluffy as pictured. Any ideas? Is this mixture supposed to be rather thick?

Not sure! Hope you like them.

Can almond flour be used instead of most flour? Thanks

Almond flour requires a lot more moisture and liquid so I am not sure of the ratios that would work. Feel free to experiment though!

My batter came out very dense because I used coconut flour so I added another 1/2 cup blended cottage cheese. We shall see, they are in the oven now

I always suggest following the recipe as intended. This will not work with coconut flour.

good. thanks

Me and my sister wanted a little late night snackie! And my oh my was this Scrumdiddlyumptious!!!! We are both big backs so we loveeeeee a nice gooey brownie but due to medical reason we now have to be no sugar or gluten. Thank you so much for this recipe will be making again!!! <3

YAY!! So happy you loved them!!

I tried this recipe. I used coconut flour and it did not work as it came out dry and clumpy. I really tried to get the moisture in by adding milk or oil. I probably made it worse. Next time I’ll try to use regular flour. Hope everyone else’s try at this recipe worked for them.

The recipe needs to be followed as written. Coconut flour will not work. Thanks!

can i swap to almond power

I cannot guarantee results if the recipe not followed as written.
