This recipe is for anyone asking what bakes brownies fudgy.

In my opinion, that fudgy taste is really about the chocolate that is in the batter.
This is why I always add sugar free chocolate chips to my brownies as I like a fudgy tasting brownie.

However, some folks enjoy are cake brownie.

While I am not someone who prefers a cakelike brownie to a fudgy brownie, I get that not everyone is not like me. So, if you want a cake brownie rather than a fudge brownie simply omit the chocolate chips!

If you are wondering how do you make brownies from scratch then you.

Making brownies from scratch is not a difficult process. Yes, it may take you a few tries before you get your perfect brownie.

We will be using a sugar alternative to make these brownies.

Please make sure that you are using a sugar alternative that measures 1:1 with sugar. It is important to keep the balance of dry to wet ingredients to make this recipe a success. You can read the label on the sugar alternative that you choose to use to make sure that you are using the correct one.

Here are some tips for making brownies.

I mentioned above that using a granular sugar alternative that measures 1:1 with sugar is essential for keeping a balance in the ingredients. Also, mentioned is that if you are looking to make a more cake-like brownie you can omit the chocolate chips (and optionally add an egg).

Here are some more helpful tips for you.

1. The biggest hack for this recipe is to simply omit the dry ingredients and use a box of brownie mix instead. You can find sugar free brownie mix here. You may need to adjust your added soda so start by using a half can and adjust from there.
2. Obviously, you can use another kind of cola instead of the Dr. Pepper. Optional beverage ideas would include a regular sugar free cola or even coffee.
3. I use Parchment Paper that overhangs the sides of my brownie baking pan. This allows me to easily remove the brownies from the pan (less mess!!) for cutting.

People always ask how do you know when brownies are done.

Using the toothpick method may not be so accurate when you are adding chocolate chips so you may want to check in more than one place. I like to make sure that the center appears somewhat set and the edges are wanting to separate from the pan. We are not adding eggs to this recipe, on a side note.
