Notes
- Keep in mind that the batter for these protein brownies is thicker than a normal pour-based brownie mix. You won’t be pouring it into the pan so much as scraping.
- This also means you need to use a spatula to press it into the bottom and even it out.
- Make sure the chocolate protein brownies are completely cooled before slicing.
- If you want the brownies to be even fudgier, remove them from the oven when they’re finished cooking. This makes it so that they still have that “undercooked”, fudge-like feel.
- Know that using a different protein powder will result in a change to the texture. You may need to scale back the liquid or cook the brownies longer.
