Black 'n' White Brownies Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 cup cake flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup shortening, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar replacement
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp water
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut, grated
1 tsp coconut milk
1 oz baking chocolate, melted
Recipe Preparation
These brownies are mailable.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Cream shortening and
sugar replacement until light and fluffy. (My note: be sure to use a
sugar replacement that does not lose sweetness when heated -
Aspertame is not suitable.)
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in
vanilla extract and water.
Divide batter into two equal parts. To one part add unsweetened
coconut and coconut milk. Stir to completely blend. To the remaining
half, beat in the melted chocolate.
Spread coconut mixture on bottom of well-greased 8-in square pan.
Spread chocolate layer on top of coconut layer. Bake at 350 F for 25
to 30 min. Cut into 1 x 2 inch bars.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Eat regular meals Most low carb recipes are, well...., low in carbohydrates. Your body requires energy, and carbs are a very efficient energy source. A reduced carb diet needs extreme care in controlling your energy levels, as any energy provided by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
Carotenoid foods
(includes parsley, rose hip puree and sweet potatoes)
These orange and green foods are rich in alpha-carotene and beta-carotene thought by doctors to play a role in helping stop cancer, particularly cancers of the stomach and lesophagus. Most are low in calories, so should be included in every weight loss regime.
