Chewy Chocolate Orange Bars

Remember the days when you got all giddy just thinking of those chocolate oranges wrapped in foil? You could only enjoy on after whacking it on a hard surface so the "slices" are separated inside. Many adults consider those one of their favorites.

To this day, the combination of chocolate and orange is still dearly loved. Here’s a chewy brownie recipe with a pleasant hint of orange and just the right amount of sweetness.

Chewy Chocolate Orange Bars

• 2 cups cake flour
• 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oatmeal
• 1 cup dark-brown sugar, packed
• 2 egg whites
• Raisin Puree
• 3/4 cup chopped bittersweet chocolate
• 1/3 cup toasted walnuts, optional
• 1 tablespoon grated orange zest

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt into large bowl. Stir in oatmeal and brown sugar. Beat egg whites lightly in another bowl. Stir in raisin puree. Stir into flour mixture along with chocolate, walnuts, and orange zest just until blended. Spoon in 9-inch-square baking pan sprayed with non-stick vegetable spray. Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool. Cut into bars.

Knock yourself out! 🙂
