Servings: 16 squares
WW Points: 3 points each (approx, based on WW plan)
Ingredients:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup light butter, melted (or use unsweetened applesauce for fewer points)
- ½ cup granulated sugar substitute (like Stevia or Monkfruit)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cheesecake layer:
- 6 oz light cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp sugar substitute
- 1 egg white
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix melted butter (or applesauce) and sugar substitute. Add eggs and vanilla, stirring until smooth.
- Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Spread the brownie batter evenly into the pan.
- In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar substitute, egg white, and vanilla until smooth.
- Drop spoonfuls over the brownie batter, then swirl with a knife for a marbled effect.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until set in the center. Let cool before slicing into 16 pieces.
💡 Tips:
- Use applesauce instead of butter to shave off points.
- Chill before slicing for cleaner edges.
- These brownies are rich, chocolatey, and WW-friendly – perfect when you want a treat without the guilt!
