My daughter made these tonight and they turned out really good! They are more cake like than fudgy, but the flavor and texture are good. Definitely satisfies our craving for chocolate cake. I calculated these as 2 points each for the points plus program. Thanks for posting!

I know that everyone says that these taste low fat, but I disagree. These are wonderful! Perfectly portioned, just chocolaty enough, a little chewy,mmmmmmmmm....anyway...I can't tell you for sure how many batches of these I have made since I found this about 2 weeks ago. I can't seem to keep them in the house. I don't feel guilty giving them to my kids or my husband. We have split them in half and spread a little natural peanut butter on them and it was like heaven. My DH and kids love them with a few butterscotch chips sprinkled on the top before baking. LOVE this recipe. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I haven't tried this yet but the new points plus calculation is 2 points each.
