Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup chocolate (chopped) Semi-sweet or dark chocolate works beautifully.
  • 1 cup vanilla yogurt Any flavored yogurt can be used for a twist.
  • 1/2 cup sugar of choice Can substitute with coconut sugar or a sugar alternative.
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour Gluten-free flour can be used if needed.
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder Choose unsweetened to control sweetness.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Helps the brownies rise.
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice Almond, oat, or any preferred milk can be used.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (optional) For double chocolate indulgence.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chopped chocolate. Melt it in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  3. Once melted, let it sit for 1-2 minutes before adding the Greek yogurt and sugar. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.
  5. Add the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda to the melted mixture. Stir until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  6. Pour in the milk and mix until fully incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips if desired.
  7. Pour the batter into the lined pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, avoid overmixing the batter and allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week. Brownies can also be frozen for up to three months.
