Hungry Girl Brownie Cupcakes



Recommended Posts

Saw this on TV and thought I'd try them, they are 180 calories but a nice treat.

1 box of Devil food cake mix

1 can of pumpkin puree (not the pie mix)

mix it together and put in muffin cups, bake 400 for 20mins

these come out super moist (still eat it slowly :))

I top with a little lite cool whip, yummy treat

I have heard of that recipe but haven't had the nerve to try it yet. I might see if my kids will eat them. At least it will give them a little veggie in their dessert!

I have made these many times. Your right you don't even know there is pumpkin in them the pumpkin keeps them moist. I use the low sugar cake mix, add 2 eggs and and 1 cup of dark chocolate mini chips and bake them in the mini baking pans and they are 35 calories each. I am so glad I saw this tread as I might not have remembered them.

Here is something better:

Take a box of fat free brownie mix and one can of black Beans.

Put the Beans in the blender liqud and all and puree them.

mix them and the box of brownie mix and in a bowl and blend together. (don't put anything in the brownie mix but the beans)

bake as usual and cut into squares.

they are very high in Fiber and fat free.

Hmmm...black Beans and chocolate together??? Does that really taste good? Black beans are pretty flavorful

I would love to try, but alas... my chocolate addiction would not allow me to eat just one!

I made these and the pumpkin taste is insanely strong. i didn't even use the full amount of the recommended pumpkin.

it's tolerable, but i made a batch to take to work to share with co-workers, and i could never take them because i don't think folks would like them

I have tried the devil's food cake and pumpkin muffins and they are delicious! Even my husband loved them! :-) I think I'm going to try putting the chocolate chips in next time. I'll have to try the brownie recipe.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
