Description

These skinny bite-sized brownies are soft, fluffy, moist, flavorful, and are neither “fudgy” nor “cakey”, but a delicious hybrid of both.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celsius or 350 degrees Fahrenheit

  2. In a double boiler, microwave (at intervals), or directly in a saucepan, melt the butter. Add the chocolate pieces into the bowl/saucepan and gently stir until melted

  3. Remove from heat if using double boiler or saucepan, and stir in the beetroot purée, vanilla extract, sugar, and salt. When the mixture has mostly cooled, stir in the egg as well

  4. Fold in the flour and baking powder until combined. Do not over-mix

  5. Transfer the mixture into a greased or lined 8×8 (inch) cake tin and spread the batter so that it fills the cake tin properly
