Fudgie Brownies

We are team fudgie, center cut brownies at our house. While our favorite recipe of all time is Ina Garten's Outrageous Brownies, these are a lot less work and slay those weeknight chocolate cravings. 
We swapped half the sugar for Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener - 1:1 White Sugar Substitute, Zero Calorie, Keto Diet Friendly, Zero Net Carbs, Zero Glycemic, Baking, Extract, Sugar Replacement (Classic White - 1 Pound) to save on a few calories and cut a bit of the sugar out. (It's January so we are trying to be a little healthier with our diet.) This post may contain affiliate links. See full disclosure statement here.

Makes 16 brownies

Ingredients:

1 cup butter, melted

1 cup white sugar

1 c monk fruit sweetener (or use white sugar if you prefer)

2 eggs

1 tbs vanilla extract

2 tsp espresso powder

2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 C chocolate chips 

Preheat oven to 350. Line a 13x9 pan with parchment paper. 

In a large bowl, stir together melted butter and sugar until combined. Add in eggs, vanilla and espresso powder. Next mix in flour and cocoa powder. When almost combined add chocolate chips. You could add in some nuts here as well. Whatever your chocolate loving heart desires. 💕

Spread mixture into prepared pan and bake 25-30 minutes. 


Let cool 10 minutes, or more if you can control yourself. Use parchment paper to remove from pan and cut into rectangles.

Sourdough Discard Chocolate Cake

I've made sourdough bread for years but recently started branching out and trying different things with my discard. I had made apple cheddar muffins with sourdough discard probably about 15 years ago, sourdough waffles like the ones I had tried in Las Vegas, but never really added it to anything else outside of bread products.  I tried Chocolate Chip Cookies a while back with good results so it seemed natural to try a chocolate cake recipe. I tend to make my baked goods less sweet so I adapted a recipe I found to suit our tastes and topped it with a lightly sweetened peanut butter drizzle. This cake was moist and perfectly sweet. Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup cocoa powder 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla extract 3/4 cup oil 1/2 cup sourdough discard 1/2 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup brown sugar 1 cup milk of choice 1/2 cup hot, fresh and strong brewed coffee Preheat oven to 350° and grease a bundt pan, set aside. In a large ...

In a large bowl or a bowl of a stand mixer combine 1 cup of water and a tablespoon of yeast. Let sit while you gather the rest of your ingredients so the yeast can get activated. Add a quarter cup of sugar to the yeast mixture. Then add in flour, salt, and beet powder. Start to mix those together then add one egg and two tablespoons of melted butter. Mix until thoroughly combined and the dough forms a ball that is tacky. Cover dough and let rest an hour to an hour and a half until doubled in size.
