An ooey-gooey brownie can change your whole day and mood. These chocolate chip fudge brownies are perfect to make quickly when you are craving chocolate.
They are only 5 Freestyle points on Weight Watchers and bursting with chocolate chips.
Sometimes you crave a brownie. Trust me, I have been there. And they aren’t the best in terms of healthy, but these are a bit healthier than your typical brownie.

Yes, they still have butter and sugar in them, but since they are so small to begin with, you can get away with a little bit of sugar in your desserts.
I know that Weight Watchers doesn’t like sugar – and you should cut back as much as you can on it – but really…a little here and there won’t kill you.
I actually made sure that these used real sugar instead of a sugar substitute. I also didn’t feel like trying to figure out the Stevia to sugar conversion (if we are being honest).
This is probably no secret, but I do love chocolate. These chocolate chips (affiliate link) are my all time favorite things ever, and they are used in this recipe.
I like them because they are still very rich, but give you that amazing chocolate flavor. I pop them in my mouth after dinner (16 are only 4 SmartPoints) and bam.
I used those chocolate chips in this recipe. These brownies might be a bit more bitter than you are used to because of the chocolate chips.
You don’t have to use the chocolate that I did, but the SmartPoints might be affected because you use milk chocolate.
If you are interested in something other than brownies, these lemon cookies might be right up your alley.
