    I made this and subsituted splenda for the sugar and splenda brown sugar blend for the brown sugar. I also used skim milk which changed the calores to 178 per serving. It tasted great too! Esp with vanilla ice cream! - 2/17/09

    I was afraid to make too many substitutions because I thought it would change it too much. But I am glad to see that you did it and think it is still ok and for the difference in calories I am going to try it that way next time. Thanks!

    I made this for my family for Valentine's day. It was simple to make and really fast to put together. I thought it was even better the next day, so next time I may make it a little early. Thanks for sharing! - 2/16/09

    omgosh this was awesome. Although I messed up and put brown sugar in the batter instead of white, could taste the difference, it still had a good flavor even after the 3rd day infact I think it was better. Definantely took care of my choc craving and DH loved it also. Absolutely making again! - 8/6/09
