For those that get Shape magazine I would love to have the brownie recipe out of the September issue. I saw in the check out line at the grocery store today, but I couldn't justify spending $4 when all I wanted was the brownie recipe.
Thanks,
I seem to recall someone saying they were cutting out the sweets

Mary - Oh thank you so much. I really appreciate all the trouble you went through to retype all of that for me. When I saw the calories were cut in half and the fat even more so, I definitely thought they be worth a try! I'll let you know how they turn out, except I'll have to PM you since I was busted by Catherine!
Catherine - Ummm! I wanted it for a church picnic I have this Sunday, I just thought I'd do everyone a favor and bring a lower calorie brownie, yeah that's it! That's my story and I am sticking with it. Seriously, I can't believe I was busted. I was however impressed how the calories were cut in half and the fat reduced, thought I would just add it to my arsenal for after I lose the weight and I am feeling like a cheat. I do hope to try and improve it a little more.
