These are certainly as creamy and rich as the description says. I was surprised at how creamy they were, considering I used fat-free milk. My kids love these, although I find them a little bitter even though I used dutched cocoa. Next time I make them I think I will cut down the cocoa powder a little and add a bit more sweetener to see if I can strike the right balance for my palate. But you definitely won't find anything this decadent with such simple ingredients in the freezer case of the grocery store! I'm sure the kids will have me making these again and again.
