You sink your teeth into sweet, chewy warmness. You inhale the aroma of rich, dark chocolate... with a hint of chilli? Without a moment to spare, you dash to the fridge and chug five glasses of ice-cold milk. Phew!

Supplies

Makes 2 brownies in standard muffin tins or 6 brownies in mini muffin tins. You wouldn't want to make too many or they would go to waste! ;)

2 tbs vegetable oil
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tbs plain low-fat yogurt
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbs cocoa powder
2 tbs all purpose flour
2 tsp finely ground chilli powder (or more)
a pinch of salt
a very small pinch of baking soda

For the icing (optional):

1 tbs icing sugar
1/8 tsp milk

Step 1:

Preheat oven to 350°F or 180°C and grease muffin tin of choice (standard or mini). Gather all ingredients.

Step 2:

Combine vegetable oil, sugar, yogurt, and vanilla. In a separate bowl, stir together the cocoa powder, flour, chilli powder, baking soda, and salt. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, until the batter is smooth.
