Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup chopped no-sugar-added dark chocolate pieces
  • 1 cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup granular zero-calorie sweetener erythritol or similar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup no-sugar-added dark chocolate chips optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides. Set aside.
  2. Place the chopped chocolate in a heat safe bowl and gently melt it using short microwave bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt and zero-calorie sweetener until smooth and creamy.
  4. Whisk the melted, slightly cooled chocolate into the yogurt mixture until glossy and fully combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed and free of lumps.
  6. Add the dry ingredients to the yogurt mixture. Pour in the almond milk and stir with a spatula just until no dry flour remains. The batter will be thick.
  7. Fold in the chocolate chips if using, then scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top into an even layer with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the edges are set and just starting to pull away from the pan and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Place the pan on a wire rack and cool the brownies in the pan for at least 10 to 15 minutes. Lift out using the parchment, cool completely, then slice and serve.

Notes

- Greek yogurt makes a thicker batter and a dense, fudgy brownie texture. This is normal.
- A slight sink in the center after baking is expected with yogurt based, low sugar brownies and does not affect taste.
- Cool fully before slicing so the brownies set and cut cleanly.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- For longer storage, wrap individual squares and freeze for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature for about 1 hour.
- Warm a brownie in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds before serving if you like a softer, just-baked texture.
