Introduction
A lower calorie brownie with a chocolate-butterscotch taste This recipe recommends the use of a special flavoring called butavan, which has a butterscotch-like flavor. It can be ordered online, but is difficult to find in stores. If you prefer, you can omit the butavan and just use pure vanilla extract and/or butter flavoring then substitute the chocolate chips for butterscotch chips for about 5 more calories per serving to get a similar flavor. Or, skip the butterscotch flavor and just use vanilla and butter flavoring. :) A lower calorie brownie with a chocolate-butterscotch taste This recipe recommends the use of a special flavoring called butavan, which has a butterscotch-like flavor.

Ingredients
-
1/2 c pumpkin
3 egg whites (large eggs)
2 tsp butavan flavoring
1/2 c unsweetened cocoa
1 c granulated sugar
1/2 c all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/3 c semisweet mini chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8x8 inch baking pan with cookie spray.
.
In a mixing bowl combine pumpkin, egg whites, and butavan. In a separate mixing bowl combine cocoa, sugar, flour, salt, and baking powder. Pour pumpkin mixture into dry ingredients and stir, just until wet. (about 50 strokes)
.
Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Bake in the oven for approx 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
.
Makes 16 - 2x2 inch squares.
.
Recipe Tip - The more you stir the ingredients, the more cake-like your brownies will be. The above recipe will not give you a completely fudge-like consistency - it is slightly more cake-like. Omit baking powder to help make a little more fudge-like.

Made these for a guest and they were fantastic! Exactly what my sweet tooth was craving without going overboard. Used whole wheat pastry flour and only 1/2 cup brown sugar -- didn't miss it one bit! The mini chips were perfect. Will try adding a tsp. of instant coffee for mocha brownies next time! - 1/30/11

So tasty! I was on a time constraint, so I wasn't able to find the butavan flavoring. I used butterscotch chips and mini chocolate chips sprinkled on the top. They were delicious thank you so much for the recipe!!! - 3/19/09

Thanks for the review! For anyone wondering where you can get hold of Butavan (if you don't have to worry about a time constraint) I get mine from here: http://www.earlenescakes.com/store/flavors
