Recipe: Dennys Tapas Style Brownies
Dennys Tapas Style Brownies: "Want your chocolate brownie but also want a healthier yet tasty version? Read on!
For the past twenty years or so the American brownie has grown to gargantuan proportions. One brownie really could serve four people! The trend has been to undercook the batter to a gooey center. Well, folks, read that as why Americans have gotten so fat."
From Denny: Let's face it, Louisiana has an obesity problem. Well, I'm not one for giving up my blessed chocolate, a gift from God! But I did take a look at the decade long trend of huge and gooey American desserts and decide to chart another healthier course. I just wanted my chocolate! :)
I'm especially proud of developing this latest recipe as it really answers the need to reduce portion size, calories, sugar and gluten, creating a healthier diet. Chocolate still reigns just in smaller portions! It's still good cooking in Louisiana!
