Add the eggs, mixing well to incorporate. Stir in the flour, salt, and baking powder, scraping the sides of the bowl frequently, until fully blended. Spread evenly into prepared pan.

Not enough chocolate for you? Next time throw in some semisweet chocolate chips. Or maybe a combination of semisweet with a few milk or white chocolate chips for variety. Get creative!

Low Fat Recipe

use 1/2 cup of light spread*, melted, in place of the margarine

2 egg whites**

That's it. Two simple changes reduce the fat content considerably.

Use a spread like Smart® Balance light. It's more difficult to melt, but it's healthier. The fat content is much less plus you get the omegas 3 & 6, no trans fats and it's nondairy.

*Contains 5grams of fat per tablespoon compared to regular margarine with 9 to 11grams of fat per tablespoon.

**Egg whites are fat free. The yolks contain approximately 4.5grams of fat each.
