This recipe could use some additions. It has potential but it definitely was not sweet enough. Next time I'll add more sugar or maybe just some dark chocolate chips as other reviewers suggested. Very moist and rich though. You can barely notice the blueberries, just little blobs within the chocolate.

Definitely tastes like a fat free baked good, but was pretty nice. I doubled it and used white wheat flour.
