     Yum! You'd never know these were low-fat! I baked them in an 8x8 pan and cut into 16 servings. So that made them 54 calories and .5 gr fat each. Some whipped cream would be so good on these. Next time I'm doubling the recipe and making them in a 9x13 pan. - 4/20/09

     I agree, these have more of a cake consistency. I added about 2Tbsp of instant coffee to intensify the chocolate flavor. It's a great base for anything, sugarfree jelly, peanut butter, etc. Thanks for sharing - 4/20/09

     They weren't chewy like the description said, but they were great. For the calories and fat it is worth it. I will add a little more cocoa powder next time but these were really good. They are light and fluffy, more like a cake then a brownie. - 4/5/09

     I used canned pumpkin instead of applesauce because I generally don't buy applesauce..very moist with the pumpkin! YUM! I also had some redi-whip on the side :) - 7/19/12

     YUM! I, too, put them in an 8x8 pan and it barely covered the bottom with a thin layer of the batter, so I wish I would have doubled the recipe. I also added 1.5 Tbsp of coffee crystals (like Texas sheet cake). Other than being super thin, these are great (even the batter was tasty)! - 10/19/10

     The batter was yummy enough that I doubled the batch. I've had some unopened applesauce for a while, knowing I'd get an urge to bake something lowfat. This recipe satisfies the chocolate craving AND is kind on the waistline. Thanks!! - 7/28/11

     These are great! Moist and chocolaty - Just the right size to satisfy the longing. They are very much like my Wacky Cake recipe, which is the all time favorite around here. I'll make these again. - 6/21/11

     I made this tonight and they turned out great! I made a few additions to the recipe. Instead of cider vinegar I used balsamic vinegar, and I added two tablespoons of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. Fantastic! - 5/13/09

     Yummy! I made them in mini cupcake cups and added just a little more sugar. Also, I always keep some Motts unsweetened apple sauce around as it comes in handy 1/2 cup portions. I used 1/2 cup of apple sauce and 1/4 cup water, but I doubt it made any difference. - 9/15/12

     These were GREAT! Definately took care of the sweet tooth, but not too sweet and very light! - 10/13/11

     I would add a little more sugar... They were not as sweet as I thought they would be. I made a simple homemade chocolate icing to go on top and called it a cake! Icing - 4tbs. coco, 6tbs. skim milk, 1tsp vanilla, and 1/2 box of conf. sugar....boil first 3 then pour over sugar and spread on cake - 9/20/09

     Took a reviewer's suggestion of adding some instant cofee and oh yeah! awesome . ,I used Swerve brown sugar substitute.It's expensive but i use occasionally for these special recipes. When using the brown sugar substitutes, i find i have to use a "pinch" of bkg.powder to get a little lift. - 1/30/21
