Just realized that I didn't read the previous review. If I had, I would have known that the recipe makes only 4 servings.

This is excellent and ohhhhh so rich way to get your chocolate fix! The marsala adds such a wonderful taste. This is very easy to put together. The recipe yield only 4 small ramekins. We didn't have whipped cream in the house but that would put this over the top, that and fresh raspberries! Thanks again RBS, wonderful as always!
