Spray a square baking pan (8x8 inches) with nonstick cooking spray.  Combine ingredients in large mixing bowl; blend well.  Pour into pan and bake 20-30 minutes in a 350 degree oven or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.  Remove from oven and let cool five minutes in pan.  Remove from pan place on wire rack and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.  Cut into eight squares.  Makes eight servings.  95 calories each.

Brownies aren't something you can include in your daily menu if flawless abs are your goal.  But wait!  This simple recipe is lower in fat, sugar and calories than what you would buy at your bakery.  Dutch processed cocoa is a surprising replacement for chocolate, and applesauce replaces oil.  I guarantee you won't believe the results!
