Question

Made sugar free brownies Using a package of Pillsbury sugar free brownie mix and a can of diet Cherry Coke zero.  Baked per instructions in an 8 x 8 tin pan. Not a big fan as the texture was kind of odd, gooey. Anyone have any luck or suggestions?  Served with some Cool Whip. 4 points a serving

Answer 1

I make these and use unsweetened applesauce instead of oil , they are good.  

Comments

@durward125 how much applesauce do you use?  

---

@encomium19698 1/4C per egg

---

@encomium19698 sane amount as what the oil is.  

---

@durward125 thanks!  

Answer 2

I used the same brownie mix but used 12 oz of Diet Coke. Top was same as yours but the bottom was almost jello like. YUCK!  

Comments

@kresic2138 Partches Dunn, jello like is a good description. I then put them in the freezer - let’s see if that helps!

@mauricemauricio mine went into the trash.  

Answer 3

I've never made it with soda but I've made it as per box directions but substituted unsweetened applesauce for the oil.  

Answer 4

I made the pillsbury sf vanilla and added 1c unsweetened applesauce it wasn't bad

Comments

@mucker I did too . it was dry to me. filled the cupcakes with sugar free pudding

---

@wight I guess I should have added the eggs ? I still ate them 4 pts I needed a sweet treat or 2

Answer 5

I've used Cherry coke zero and Dr. Pepper 10. I let the brownies bake a little longer, and they came out fine. Served with cool whip, and even the kids ate them.  

Answer 6

I’ve used applesauce but only soda with the cake mixes.  

Answer 7

Does not sound good. Think I will pass

Answer 8

You can try a can of black beans. Here’s what you do: (edited) Drain and rinse a can of black beans in a strainer. Put the drained beans back into the can, fill it with water, add the can of water/beans to a food processor and make a mush. Add the black beans/water mixture to the brownies mix (just these two ingredients) and bake as directed.  

Comments

@depress , now that sounds unusual!  

---

@mauricemauricio admittedly, it does. It’s good. I prefer this concoction with a regular brownie mix, but it’s good with the sugar free version. I swear you cannot taste the beans.  

---

@depress I rinse a can of black beans in a strainer, pour them back in the can, fill the can 95% with water, then process in my Magic Bullet. Add to chocolate brownie mix & bake in an 8x8 pan according to the directions on the box. Nobody has ever suspected beans in the brownies!  

---

@lissner you’re right. I edited mine.  

---

I have made them as well, and you cannot taste the beans. They are pretty yummy!  

---

With the black beans are the brownies fudgy or cakey?  

Answer 9

I’ve made this with cake mix but not brownie. Just did a quick search and ppl suggest using a 9x13 glass dish and increasing baking time by 7 minutes. Plus do the toothpick test for doneness. Maybe that’ll help?  

Answer 10

I used the Diet Coke too and didn’t really like it. I won’t be doing that again.  

Answer 11

Yeah I’m not a fan still need to try black beans in brownies

Answer 12

Made that mix using eggs, applesauce and pumpkin or bananas

Answer 13

I make them the way the package says, o oh I add a little more water. I bought a Pampered Chef brownie pan, so they come out clean each time. I really like them. Sometimes I just do the dry package mix with a can of pumpkin for the same points, or add 12 Hershey’s sugar free special dark chocolates (chopped) for “chocolate chip” brownies. That makes them 4 pts.  

Comments

@barrettbarrette do you just add a can of pumpkin and nothing else?  

---

@encomium19698 Yes! I use a hand mixer to blend.  

---

@barrettbarrette thank you!  

---

@encomium19698 You’re welcome!  

---

Now I need to order the pampered chef pan!  

---

@encomium19698 I’ve had my 9x9 Pampered Chef pan for 30 years. Still works perfect.  

Answer 14

These are amazing!

Answer 15

I made the sugar free devils food with a can of pumpkin and 1/2 cup of water. YUMMY

Comments

@recurrence44516 are those the only ingredients you used? Also, did you make these into muffins?  

Answer 16

I LOVE the Pillsbury sugar free brownies (and sf cake mixes). I made mine following the box directions, but instead of using oil, I substituted unsweetened applesauce. I topped each brownie square with sugar free/fat free reddi whip and fresh strawberries! Delish!  

Comments

@grimona I did the same thing. used unsweetened apple sauce baked for 20min for chewy ones

---

@rite87 me too! We’re delicious

---

How much of the applesauce did you use and can you use it in the SF cake mixes too?  

---

@gonna292 absolutely! You use the same amount of unsweetened applesauce as you would oil. For instance: if the cake mix calls for 1/2 cup oil, you would use 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce instead of the oil. And yes, use this in ALL sf cake mixes AND sf brownie mix!  

---

KellyAnn Julian Stephenson, try the sf Pillsbury brownie mix. It is so good served with fresh strawberries and gd/sf reddi whip! Sooo good AND guilt free!  

---

Oh I am going to try. LOL! Thanks for sharing.
