Weight Loss & Fudge Brownie

2008 April 18

26 years old, 84 kilos and only 5 feet and 4 inches- i am on the verge on obesity :( (I am 10 kilos overweight than my husband). Most of my readers would have now figured out as to where all the food that i cook goes :) After being seriously overweight for 2 years, i have finally joined a gym and i am sweating out all my past food-sins. I have a personal trainer- who has been doing an amazing job to keep me motivated and to keep up with my fat-woman’s-tantrums. My weight loss programme is a combination of workouts, diet and lipid  activity modifier (LAM) massages. As a part of my diet i have made some important changes in my food habits- i try to restrict my calorie intake to around 1200 per day ! Iam yet to regularise my diet and i still fall in to the tempations of junk food :( but once i have it in place- i will be posting it on my blog !!

Today however is about the other side of my weight loss plan- the temptation of “Fudge Brownie”. I have been wanting to make fudge brownies for a long time and just because i am on weight loss programme is no reason to treat my eyes atleast. My husband loves my brownies so after a long hectic week at work for him- this is the way i wanted to treat him!

You Need:

1. Flour (Maida)- 3/4th Cup

2. Baking Soda- 1/2 tsp

3. Butter- 75 gms

4. Sugar- 3/4th Cup

5. Dark Chocolate- 150 gms (Broken in to small pieces)

6. Egg- 2 nos

7. Vanilla Essence- 1 tsp

This is how you make it:

1. On a medium flame, melt the butter and the sugar. Stir continously during the process and make sure you take the vessel off the flame as soon as the mixture reaches the boiling point.

2. Mix the chocolate pieces in to the mixture and stir till it is melted and well mixed.

3. Set aside the mixture till is luke warm.

4. When the mixture is lukeware- add the eggs one at a time. Whisk constantly during this process or else the eggs might get cooked and you will end up with scrambled eggs in your brownies.

5. Mix the flour and the baking soda and add it to the chocolate mixture.

6. Add the vanilla essence and whisk till all the ingredients are well mixed.

7. Pour the mixture in to buttered baking dish and bake in a oven that has been pre-heated to 175 degree celcius.
