    I enjoyed these and made them according to recipe (excepting 2 eggs for the 4 egg white) They are moist and chocolate-y. They could be a tad sweeter for my taste. THanks for the recipe! - 8/8/13

    I made zucchini bread with it, and you can't even tell its made with whole wheat flour. Not spongey like some low calorie breads, and very chocolately! - 7/24/10

    I am so glad you like it! I am making a batch today, as I am working on losing my baby weight for the 5th time! (last baby for sure!)

    I thought these were really good. I don't know if it's because there is no oil, but when using cupcake papers the muffin stuck to the papers and I lost a lot of the muffin trying to separate them. I guess that just means you eat less :) I made both muffins and a loaf, so I liked the loaf better - 7/15/12

    Yummy! And my kids are eating zucchini! I did make a few adjustments, I used vanilla Greek yogurt and cut the sugar to 1/2c. of raw sugar. I also added some ground flax and a bit of water. They turned out great...they are big and filling at 136 calories. Thanks!! - 8/6/11

    I used Greek Yogurt, plain and added a sprinkle of chopped walnuts to the top. I made mine a little smaller and got 18 muffins. As for the sticking to the wrapper, I used foil muffin liners. - 7/31/13
