This recipe is sugar-free because it uses brown rice syrup instead of sugar. Using brown rice syrup also reduces the amount of calories. For another variation, try using brown rice flour instead of wheat flour.
1/2 C. brown rice syrup 2 Tbs. unsalted butter 3 1 oz. squares unsweetened baking chocolate 1 tsp. vanilla 2 eggs 1/2 C. sifted all-purpose flour 1/2 C. chopped pecans or walnuts
