Directions

  1. Special equipment: 8-inch square baking pan
  2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  3. Spray pan with nonstick vegetable oil cooking spray. Set aside.
  4. Mix wheat bran and 1/2 tablespoon soy flour together and sprinkle evenly over the inside of the greased pan, also coating the sides.
  5. Place the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a steel bowl and melt over a saucepan of simmering water.
  6. Whisk in 1 cup sugar substitute and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Once thoroughly blended, turn off heat and keep warm until needed.
  7. With an electric mixer on high, beat the eggs, 1 cup sugar substitute and the vanilla extract just until blended. Reduce to low speed and then blend in the chocolate mixture.
  8. With a wooden spoon, mix in the baking powder, 1 1/4 cups soy flour, walnuts, and 1/4 cup heavy cream.
  9. Spread evenly into the prepared pan and bake on the center rack for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (Do not over-bake or brownies will be dry and hard.) Cool completely before frosting with low carb chocolate frosting.
  10. Cut into 5 rows by 5 rows to make 25 pieces.
  11. Place all ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well combined. Use to frost brownies, but make sure brownies are completely cooled, or the butter in the frosting will melt.
