Ingredients

• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.75 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt (non-fat or low-fat)
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1 piece large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Greek yogurt, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until smooth.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth it out evenly with the back of a spoon or spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake for fudgier brownies).

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Cut into 12 equal squares and serve.
