Low Fat Mocha Brownie Bars

A lovely little recipe from Faith over at Gold In The Clouds



1/2 c. butter, softened

1 (14 oz) can of low-fat (or fat free) sweetened condensed milk

2 tsps of pure coffee extract

2 eggs

1 cup of HeartSmart Bisquick baking mix (low-fat biscuit mix)

1/2 c. baking cocoa

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/3 c chopped walnuts (optional)

1 c. of semi-sweet chocolate chips for "frosting"

  

• In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except for the walnuts and chocolate chips.
• Stir well.
• Add in the walnuts if desired.
• Spread in a lightly greased (I use Baking Spray by Crisco) 13x9 inch baking pan.
• Bake for 25 minutes (or until sides pull away from pan) in a 350 degree oven.
• Cool for about a minute then sprinkle the cup of chocolate chips over the top and smooth with a knife.  
• Set aside to completely cool.  
• Store in an air-tight container or freeze half the pan after cutting into squares
