Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring some overhang on the sides for easy removal of the fudge bars later.
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the unsweetened cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the low-fat Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to form a thick batter.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula, spreading the chips evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are firm and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the fudge bars cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the bars out of the pan and place them on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into 12 equal bars.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
