Brownies

[chasingtides]

I posted these over on ontd_political because people asked for it, so I figured I'd just post it here as well.

These are, basically, the world's easiest brownies. They're also pretty healthy and have almost no fat. However, don't fear, these aren't your store-bought tastes-like-cardboard healthy brownies. These are delicious and chocolatey and every time they're made, they're gone before the next day

1 cup flour
1 cup cocoa powder
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
apple sauce

Mix flour, cocoa powder and sugar. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add enough apple sauce to hold everything together (I use about 5 heaping spoonfuls.)

For double-chocolate brownies, add some melted semi-sweet chocolate chips or just mix them in the batter.

Bake for 45 minutes at 300 F or until done.

It's kind of the easiest thing ever to make. You can chopped fruit or nuts or anything to it, if you like.
