These are rich.. and to be honest taste soo much like a full carb brownie

Hope you enjoy as much as I do!





8x8 pan 12 servings



1 cup butter (I use salted, but if you use unsalted add 1/4 tsp salt to recipe)

6oz unsweetened chocolate(I just used bakers brand, you can get at any grocery store, its the blue box)

1/4 cup unsweetened dutch process cocoa powder

4 eggs

1 1/2 cup splenda

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

2/3 cup whey protein powder( I use vanilla and this equals 2 scoops.. I don't know how other brands work..I only have used one brand ever.. LeanFit Whey Protein Powder )



Preheat oven to 350F


Grease one 8x8” baking pan & line with parchment



In a heat proof bowl add butter, unsweetened chocolate & cocoa.Put over a simmering pan of water and until melted(like a double boiler).. mixing every now and then to breakup. Take off heat right before all is completely melted(you will see see a few chunks) and set aside. Still stiring until all melted.


In mixing bowl, add eggs, splenda & vanilla. Mix on HIGH speed until mixture comes to the pale yellow stage(mixture will be thick ).. this takes about 8-10 minutes
Temper egg mixture by added a little of the chocolate mixture to it quickly mixing by hand to make sure your eggs don't cook.. then fold in rest of chocolate mixture(do not over mix)fold in whey & baking powder(and salt if you used unsalted butter)


Press into your greased 8x8” pan evenly


Bake on 350F for 16-18 minutes.


When the brownies come out of oven, it will have a bit of melted butter at top..(this happens sometimes with low carb baked goods) you can take a paper towel and dab off.. OR you can leave it. It really is up to you. The brownies come out moist even if you dab off, but it is not needed, you can leave. IF you do dab take in to account you are taking a little bit of calories and fat away, which is not a bad thing, it just makes the nutritional info a little off


Let cool in pan
