Recipe time

I give all the credit to Hungry Girl. It is a recipe that I found and really like. The book is by Lisa Lillien. They have some really good recipes that are look in fat and calories. Here is one that my hubby and I like:

Dreamy Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

One 18.3- ounce box Betty Crocker Fudge Brownies Traditional chewy Brownie Mix
2 cups canned pure pumpkin (I just used a can with is 15 oz)
2 tablespoons reduced-fat peanut butter, at room temperature

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine pumpkin with the brownie mix in a large bowl and stir until smooth (batter will be very thick, but don't add anything else!)

Spray a square baking pan (9x9 works best) with nonstick spray and pour in the mixture. Spoon peanut butter on top and use a knife to swirl it around the top of the batter. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes. (the batter will remain very thick and fudgy, and it should look undercooked.) Allow to cool.

Cover pan with foil and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Cut into 36 squares.

One thing that I did was switch things around. I used a 50% less fat cake mix in place of the brownie mix and then use a pie filling ( a 9x9 pan doesn't work well for this.)

If you cut it into the recommend 36 peices here is the stats per brownie: 65 calories, 1g fat, 57 sodium, 14g carbs, 1g fiber, 9g sugar, 1g protein.

It is very delicious!! You kids will like it to. It is a great way not to have them eat candy bar.
