The story of the Brownies is interesting: it seems that, like the Tart Tatin, they were born by a mistake, when an American baker forgot to add yeast to a sponge cake. The result was a compact and tasty cake, which is now much appreciated. A few weeks ago, Erika, an FMD colleague, asked me if I had a recipe for Brownies and, after a long reflection, today I propose this recipe, super healthy but with all the flavor of the authentic brownie.
