The Best Brownies!

The Best Brownies!

This morning I was so excited about our new blog I wanted to try out as many of my recipes as possible, so I started with my healthy Hershey's brownies! 

I took the "Hershey's Best Brownies" recipe and changed it up! I thought about using garbanzo beans, but then decided to use half yogurt, half coconut oil instead of the two sticks of butter the Hershey's recipe required! (gross!!) 

Here's what I made: 

Healthy Brownies!
  • 1/4 cup oil (I always use coconut) 
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt 
  • 1/2 cup sugar 
  • 2 tsp. vanilla 
  • 2 eggs 
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa 
  • 1 cup flour 
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder 
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 water or milk 
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt oil, then in a large bowl, mix sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla. Add the cocoa and stir in just enough. Next, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. My batter was a little to dry at this point so I added 1/4 cup of water. Now, pour batter into greased 8 by 10 pan. Bake for 20 minutes and let cool. Next ENJOY! :) 

Here's the original Hershey's recipe to compare my healthy recipe to: 

Hershey's best brownie: 


  • 1 cup (2 sticks) of butter

  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla 
  • 4 large eggs 
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa 
  • 1 cup flour 
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder 
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
