Low Calorie Desserts
I have had a few people ask me about low calorie foods that they can make. I will be honest and say I don't watch what I eat like I should. I don't fry foods, we don't eat greasy things, we eat protein, veggies, and fruits like we should but when it comes to sweets that is my weakness without a doubt. This recipe is a low cal dessert it makes 8 servings each serving is 219 calories.
Gather all ingredients before starting:
*1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
*1/4 cup sugar
*1/2 cup dark brown sugar
*1/3 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
*1/2 teaspoon baking soda
*1 egg
*1/2 cup 2% milk
*1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
*1/4 cup vegetable oil, 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
*1 teaspoon vanilla extract
*1 teaspoon fine sea salt
*1 ounce bittersweet chocolate
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees . Whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, whisk together egg, milk, applesauce, vegetable oil, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract and sea salt. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually whisk in egg mixture until smooth; divide batter among eight oven-safe mugs or ramekins. Break bittersweet chocolate into 8 pieces and press gently into the center of each mug. Bake 20 minutes or microwave one at a time until puffed and just set in the center, 35 to 40 seconds. Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.
