These 100 Calorie Double CHhocolate Brownie Cupcakes will be your go to healthy brownie recipe! So easy to make and perfectly portion controlled!
All this healthy eating, no sugar stuff has got me in a rut and quite frankly, I’m just a little bit cranky.
I don’t want to go off the rails with a half gallon of gelato or anything (okay…I do), but I need a little something! I mean a girl has to live right?
Luckily, I found these very yummy healthy brownie cupcakes…tweaked them a little to add some flavor and boom! Got me some serious chocolaty goodness that won’t break the calorie bank!
Coffee intensifies the chocolate flavor- though,you won’t taste it. A lot like my Best Chocolate Cake with Ganache recipe (this is not figure friendly I might add – but when you need something special…OMG, OMG, OMG! You gotta make this), the coffee just kicks up the chocolate taste and adds richness without compromising the healthy factor.
The secret ingredients are the coffee to kick up the chocolate flavor and apple cider vinegar. No egg makes for a denser cupcake, more like a brownie, not to mention it reduces the calories.
So 12 muffins at 108 calories each. Thats 4 for breakfast, 4 for lunch and 4 for dinner! A perfect 1200 calorie day!

Hello! First of all i love these! i made them without the choc chips and they were still so good! how many calories are they without the chocolate chips? 🖤
Can I use an egg if I dont have applesauce?
yes!
These delicious chocolate brownie muffins were a hit at our Superbowl party! I made another batch the week after just so I could have one. They are the perfect size for that “little something’ after dinner. Not too sweet, great chocolate flavour great texture, moist and so easy to make. I like that the ingredients call for applesauce. This recipe is a keeper and will definitely make again. Thanks for sharing.
