Brownies are already a fabulous invention in themselves, but with a fluffy topping they're even more of a game-changer! Combined with the soya yoghurt and protein powder, they also provide a great source of protein. The psyllium holds the fluff together. I would almost go as far as saying ... brownies with benefits!
