This recipe was 100% created by me. I was looking for a WW friendly version of blonde brownies. They turned out quite well although a little higher in points than I was looking for. They are however, very low in fat (the only fat is in the chocolate). They passed the kid test! Let me know if you try to make them, what you think!
