    How many WW smart points are the brownies per serving?

      Weight Watchers says they are 5 points per serving. There are twenty servings per recipe which means the entire pan of brownies is 100 points. (20 servings times 5 points each equals 100 points for the entire pan) If you cut the brownies into twenty portions, each brownie is really small. Hard to eat just one since they are so small.

      I put it in the recipe builder and it came out to ZERO points per brownie! 20 servings

        Wish they were zero points but Weight Watchers says they are 5 points per serving and the entire pan is 100 points.

    Has anyone tried this with gluten free brownie mix? I’m trying it now and I hope it works. I have a friend who is GF and I’m hoping to make her a special birthday treat!!

    So just how skinny is this Skinny Brownie recipe? I’d be curious to know the difference between this recipe and the traditional method.

      Hi Pat ~ the main difference between this recipe and traditional brownies is that you will be skipping the Oil and Eggs, and using Black Beans instead. Hope this helps!

    Heidi, this is a very interesting recipe. I was wondering if you could tell me how many calories each brownie would be?

    Reply
    • Heidi says

      March 6, 2017 at 1:17 pm

      Hi Jerralea ~ thank you! With 20 servings, this brownie recipe will be approx. 105 calories each, as opposed to 160 calories if they had been prepared the traditional way with oil and eggs. You’ll save 55 calories per brownie. 🙂
