    Too many cals and carbs for such a small helping. - 9/22/10

    Sounds good, but small. I think I would try it with honey and raisons instead of the maple syrup and chocolate chips. - 7/16/10

    I was intrigued by the recipe title. But 16 brownies out of an 8x8 pan? That's one mighty small brownie for 160 calories. :-( - 7/14/10

    Is the serving size enough to satisfy? Seems like it would be a very small piece. - 7/13/10

    I want to try this with flax seed and white chocolate chips, I'm curious and inspired - 7/13/10

    homemade is better; this tasted more bran muffin like to me, because the sugar was less than I have been used to, but willing to sacrifice taste for more fiber and health benefits. Could use frosting on top. - 9/13/08

    Sometimes you get the results you wanted,
    sometimes you don't.
    What matters is that you did your best.

    I'll rate this good since all whole wheat is a acquired taste. I will add flax meal, use sugar free syrup and splenda since I'm diabetic. I can imagine the taste from the ingredients and this looks like a good treat, thanks...Chef Jim - 9/22/10
