Susan, yes chocolate chips are rather high in fat, and these brownies may
be made leaving them out. It is not neccessary to replace them. I make
them without the chocolate chips all the time. I do sometimes use add 1/4
cup of chopped nuts to the brownies instead of chocolate chips. Nuts are
also high in fat, but I personally think the nuts eaten in moderation are
nutritious. HTH Pam
