Heather,
I’m guessing these are low fat and low cholesterol? I wonder if they’d be horrible if I left out the choc chips. I can bake a lot of stuff from scratch, but I’ve never done very well with brownies.
Plus, now I have to lower my cholesterol with diet. So NOT fun. I’m seeking new dessert recipes that won’t be as good as using butter, but I’ll get over it.

Peggy - my husband is in the same boat! He just got test results back and needs to watch his cholesterol as well, so we’ve been researching and digging up new recipes.
I wish this recipe came with a nutrition label, but breaking it down it looks to be pretty cholesterol-friendly to me, aside from the margarine. I use real butter anyway and have never had a problem substituting it, so I’d give that a shot.
Hi Cherie! Let me know what you think of them!
