This is the easiest way to curb your sweet tooth that I have ever seen! Its a "Brownie in a Cup" recipe....I found it over on CompulsiveCraftiness she calls it "2 Minute Microwave Brownie in a Mug" Its so easy and only 227 calories and 5 grams of fat. She eliminated the oil, and the eggs. By just substituting applesauce for oil, she was able to shaved off 120 calories and more than 16 grams of fat! By the way, try using http://caloriecount.about.com to make the calculations.
