    The only thing is the serving size is TINY!

    Brownies were very cake-like (I like denser brownies), but when I thought of it more as a cake, it was good and gave me a chocolate fix that I needed. ;-) Not sure I'll make again but enjoyed well enough. - 3/28/09

    I used Splenda Brown Sugar Blend instead and added some chocolate+peanut butter chips. Same calories. DELICIOUS. - 10/2/07

    This is probably my fav recipe! I use whole wheat flour and add a tsp of cinnamon and a 1/2 tsp of ginger. Boy are they yummy! - 3/6/07

    I also altered with Brown Sugar splenda. These are wonderfully fudgy! Passed the picky grandson test!! Good to try a healthier, low fat brownie and enjoy it! . Thanks for sharing. Directions encouraged me to buy a 9x 9 pan, which I've wanted to do anyhow..... - 9/17/13

    I added an extra tablespoon of cocoa powder for extra chocolately goodness. :) Not as ooey-gooey as I like, but they definitely taste yummy! :D I made them into mini-muffins, as I did not have a 9x9 pan. Got 24 servings! :D - 11/24/09
