SECRET INGREDIENT BROWNIE



Secret Ingredient Brownie image

A moist brownie with a hint of mint. I took them to the office and they were gone in 2 hours, no joke!! I know what you're thinking... The secret ingredient is pudding. I love them frosted! You may also add 1/4 tsp. of mint extract to the "wet" ingredients if you prefer more than a hint of mint. If you don't care for mint, you may use the pudding flavor of your choice in place of the mint chocolate flavor.

Secret Ingredient Chocolate Brownies (Light) image

A delicious brownie that is healthier, but as good as it's fattier version. The secret is sweet potato and whole wheat flour, but no one will ever know... unless you tell them! I got this recipe from my Aunt.
