    These were very good and did taste a lot like a brownie. I made some adjustments and replaced the butter with 1/4 cup applesauce and used part Splenda and part sugar. To get the 48 cookies they are pretty small but by making these changes I can make 36 for a few less calories each! - 7/8/09

    SOO good! I used a melon-baller size scoop and it cut the calorie count in half - that way I could have twice as many and not feel bad! I also put parchment paper on the cookie sheet to help with taking the cookies off the sheets. - 5/23/09

    The cookies were great, but you can't leave them to chill longer than 1 hour. I put them in the fridge before making and eating dinner and the dough was hard and crumbly when I took it out. I was able to press the crumbles together, but I could see by the center how it really should have been. - 12/7/07

    First, the ice cream scoop got stuck in the very thick batter, second, I learned that these have to be cooked on a greased surface, not a silicone one. They also required 12 min. of baking. Taste and consistency were very good. - 6/28/09

    These cookies are just wonderful, everyone loves them. You can also put a couple of tablespoons of peanut better. They are great that way also. Nuts are also good in them, just not to many. - 4/2/08

    This recipe is so good! I did chill the dough for more than 1 hr and it was crumbly and the ice cream scoop was too big (it took 20 min to cook 1 batch) so I used a teaspoon and rolled the dough into small 1" balls. It made about 60 or 70 cookies, so even fewer calories per cookie! - 12/19/07

    Talk about amazing taste! I actually rolled these out to 1/4" or less thickness and pretended they were sugar cookies. They came out great (cook a little less time) and taste JUST like the most chocolate brownies you've ever had. - 12/10/07

    Thought these were great but my husband said they were "kind of boring". I disagree :-) I tried the roll into a ball method that someone suggested and it worked well, but took a bit longer to cook even in small balls. I smooshed them a bit with the spatula when they came out of the oven. Yum! - 2/5/09

    OMG!!! These are TOO good! I too, made them smaller so they would be fewer calories, but unfortunately, ate more than one! But it was SO worth it!! I used parchment paper and they slid off quite nicely. I'm bringing them to a tailgate tonight and I bet they don't last very long :) - 5/29/08

    When using mixer, make sure to do one more pass with a spoon, my bottom part was a little gooey. Cookie scooper clogged up pretty fast, i ended up using plastic gloves, rolling little balls and then smoothing them and putting them on the cookie sheets. Hubby liked them. - 7/12/09

    have not yet tried these. I checked the ingredient details
    and the calore count was for 1 cup of white and brown sugar
    instead of 3/4 cup and cocoa was calculated a 1/2 cup instead of 1/3 cup..so these are even less calories

    Oh my gosh. These cookies are divine. They remind me of two-bite brownies I have bought. Mmmmmmm!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
    Also wondering, I substituted margarine for the butter will that make much of a difference in the nutritional info?
    Thanks again.

    excellent! I used a tablespoon for my scoop, rolled into a ball, and patted down...baked for 9 minutes & they were perfect...I also agree with not chilling for more than one hour...at 1 hr 15 min, the batter was already beginning to crumble. Will definitely make again this weekend for a party! - 2/23/10

    Very easy to make and sinful! These are so rich that I can't eat more than one. I didn't have time to make these within the hour chill time so the batter sat in the fridge overnight. It was a little hard to work with initially and I had to bake the first batch a little longer. Still awesome though!! - 5/28/10

    Sounds fantastic, but seems silly to spend more than 100 cal and 4g fat for 1 cookie, and who eats just one? I'm saving this recipe but definitely tweaking it to make it more realistic. I'm sure they taste fantastic, and I know not everything has to be healthy, but this is asking for trouble, lol! - 7/11/09

    AWWW c'mon people, everyone knows dark chocolate is good for you. I always double a recipe, if portion control is difficult what about making just half a recipe? You can also try substituting the sugars for splenda. I haven't made them yet but I will. - 7/11/09

    Since I have to watch cholesterol, I did a professional analysis to double check the listed cholesterol amt; it is not accurate, and should be closer to 24 , not 17. This recipe looks delicious and could work for those who have the self control to eat just one! That would NOT be me! LOL - 7/11/09
