  1. 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!
     
  2. More a muffin than a brownie, but with a nice light chocolate flavoring, this has a slightly chewy texture and good flavor. Couldn't leave well enough alone after reading the reviews, so made my cocoa tablespoons "heaping" instead of level, and added 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder. They rose well, with nice crowns. Made 15 in my very old cupcake tins which top out at 1/4 cup liquid (so about 1/8 cup per muffin). Will make again! Will resist adding a few chocolate chips to each...well, maybe! Thanks for posting such a good recipe.
     
  3. I really liked them! They satisfied my chocolate need! My whole family enjoyed them with a great big dollop of Cool Whip Free on top. I ended up spooning almost two tablespoons into each muffin cup and I got 12 brownies. Perfect light ending to a meal. Thanks!!
     
  4. Went into this recipe because it states it is 1 point each, weight watchers. That is not accurate. If it in fact makes 12 cupcakes, each cupcake, under smart points, is 4SP
     
  5. I didn't make this recipe, but see from the reviews that it is old. Before you think this is only 1 point on Weight Watchers, run it through the recipe builder because with the Smart Point system, I can see that it must be more than that because of the amount of brown sugar alone.

Tweaks

  1. This was an awesome, chocolate treat and it really did not taste diety as the other reviewers mentioned. I did however use canola oil in place of the margarine, because im weirded out by margarine, its either butter or canola oil. I made this for my grandmothers birthday, she is currently on ww and im looking forward to her opinion. will make again for our family and use butter and choco chips. yummm. sorry for the indulgence. its okay to cheat now and then. Happy Baking!!!
     
  2. These are nice, moist cupcakes, especially considering how low in fat they are. I just can't stretch far enough to call them brownies, though; they seemed very cake-like to me (particularly like Recipe #7058), and I made sure I called them "cupcakes" and not "brownies" when referring to them, as they surely would have been judged under an entirely different set of rules by my "testers". :) I used Hershey's Special Dark cocoa to give them a little more chocolate "oomph", subbed canola oil for the melted margarine, and made them a little larger (my yield was 9 cupcakes). I made these as a "less-guilt" option for a picnic, and they were enjoyed. Thanks for posting!
     
  3. I made this tonight for dessert and they were delicious. They were super simple to make. I fooled my husband into thinking these were the full fat version, he is a choco-holic. The only things I changed w/ the recipe is that i used 1.5 tsp of butter instead of margarine and made them in a mini muffin pan, they were done in 12 minutes.

<p>I live here in wild, wonderful West Virginia with my wonderful husband. I won't give lower than a 3 star on a recipe. Just because I didn't care for it, doesn't mean some else won't, they might love it. We all have different tastes. And I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.</p>
