150 Calorie Cosmic Brownie for One
This low calorie cosmic brownie for one is the perfect quick and easy chocolatey treat to indulge in whilst in a calorie deficit!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp plain/all-purpose flour*
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp stevia or 0 calorie granulated sweetener
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbsp full-fat yogurt
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Frosting
- 2 tbsp Philadelphia lightest
- 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp 0 calorie icing sugar
- ½ tsp sugar-free sprinkles to top
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and stevia.
- Add in the yogurt, milk and vanilla and whisk to combine.
- Transfer the batter to a microwave safe dish, (I used a 9cm ramekin lined with parchment paper) and cook in the microwave for 1-2 minutes depending on your microwave. For reference, I used a 700W microwave and it took 2 minutes and 30 seconds. You can also use a toothpick to see when your brownie is done. After the first minutes, insert the toothpick into the center and if it doesn't come out clean with a few crumbs, microwave for another 30 seconds and check again. Repeat until the brownie is done.
- Make the frosting as the brownie cools by whisking together the cream cheese, 0 calorie icing sugar and cocoa powder until smooth.
- Top the cooled brownie with the frosting, add the sprinkles and enjoy!
Notes
* Stevia - The stevia I use is 2 times as sweet as sugar so you would need half the amount of sugar. If you're using a sweetener that is a 1:1 ratio with sugar, you need to double the amount of sweetener so 2 tbsp instead of 1.
