How to Make this Recipe Lower in Sugar
Swapping in Betty Crocker’s new Lower Sugar Baking Mixes and Frosting is an easy way to reduce the sugar in these delicious chocolate chip cookie brownies. You can enjoy the same great taste and same ease of prep. Read below for the simple steps.
Make the Brownies
Swap Betty Crocker™ Lower Sugar Double Chocolate Fudge Brownie Mix for the original brownie mix. Use the amounts of water, vegetable oil, and eggs for cakelike brownies called for on the lower sugar packaging.
Make the Cookie Dough
Trade the original chocolate chip cookie mix with Betty Crocker™ Lower Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix. Use the amounts of butter and egg called for on lower sugar pouch. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough evenly onto brownie batter.
Bake and Cool
Bake the cookie brownies about 28 minutes. The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Before frosting, these cookie brownies need to cool on a cooling rack for about 2 hours.
Frost the Cookie Brownies
Replace the original chocolate frosting with Betty Crocker™ Lower Sugar Milk Chocolate Frosting. Spread the creamy chocolate frosting over the brownies before cutting.
Enjoy a Lower Sugar Treat
Replacing the original brownie mix, cookie mix and frosting with Betty’s new lower sugar products reduces the total grams of sugar per serving from 31 grams to 20 grams without sacrificing the indulgence.
