Ingredients
1/4 lb butter (1 stick)2 cups xylitol1 Tbsp vanilla4 eggs (room temp is best)1/2 cup cocoa1 tsp salt4 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted2 cups flax seed meal1 Tbsp baking powder1/3 cup cream2/3 cup water1 cup walnuts (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F and grease a 9X13 pan.
1) Cream the butter until fluffy.

2) Add the xylitol to the butter and cream them together until fully combined (aim for a fluffy texture).

3) Add the vanilla and beat the eggs into the mixture, one at a time.

4) Add salt and cocoa, beat well.

5) Add chocolate, beat until fluffy.

6) Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well to combine.

7) Pour into a pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes until top springs back. (You can also test if they're ready by sticking a toothpick in the brownies. If it comes out clean, or almost-so, they're done.)

8) Cool, then cut into 32 squares. If you cheat and eat one warm, know that the texture will be different once completely cool. That's when they become like real brownies. (They are even better the next day.)

    Amazing. Perfect for phase 3 of HCG diet. You can substitute the baking powder (which has cornstarch in it) with baking soda and cream of tartar (1 tsp each equals 1 tbsp of baking powder) voilą!! - 6/25/13
