Smile No Sugar No Fat Brownies

I've fallen in love with a book full of magic formulas, the best diet cookbook I've ever owned (& I've a shocking amount.) It's the first that teaches both incredible new things about health, but also teaches how to cook for yourself with No Sugar & No (bad) fat! THIS IS A FIRST, for me anyway. Every other diet book, program, or product has always proclaimed No Sugar (but they sneak in fat), or No Fat (but they sneak in all kinds of hidden sugar). The name of this book is "The Cardiologist's Wife's CHOCOLATE TOO! Diet: No Sugar, No Fat & Luscious" (on Amazon) and it's the best thing I've ever found for my family & me. I'm so excited. With all my heart I'm rooting for everyone else with weight & diabetes problems, so I'll copy this great Brownie recipe here. NOTE: They're really a high protein, high-antioxidant health boost, but they're still delicious!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New Age Brownies: More delicate than Anytime Brownies, and a very different kind of recipe. Still no bad fat, egg yolks -- or sugar in the form of mashed bananas, dates, honey, molasses & its other disguises. (You get plenty of sugar from the healthy grains, fruits, & veggies you eat. Metabolism's bottom line: EVERYTHING breaks down to one of three things: protein, fat, or sugar.)

1/2 cup Quick cook oatmeal
3/4 cup Oat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa
1 cup Splenda
~~~~~~~~~~
1 tbsp Ener-G egg replacer & 6 tbsp warm water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup liquid egg whites
*3/4 cup shredded fat free mozzarella cheese.
5 tbsp canola oil

Preheat oven to 350. Spray baking dish with cooking spray.
Mix 6 dry ingredients in medium bowl; set aside.
Separately fork-froth the Ener-G & water, then add vanilla.
Combine egg whites, cheese, & canola in skillet over low-medium heat, stirring as the cheese melts, adding the Ener-G mixture & vanilla. If eggs start to cook, remove from heat for a bit, stir more.
Now add dry ingredients to mixture in pan, stir, pour into baking dish.
Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool 10-15 minutes before cutting.

Makes 16 snack-sized brownies, 97 calories each, or 12 huge brownies, 130 calories each. In each 12-size brownie: 5 g protein, 2 g dietary carbs.

* The cheese is what binds, like sugar & egg yolks.
