I made this with real sugar and semi-sweet morsels so the rating is for that. I also added strawberries instead but I think it would be great with any fruit. Someone said this didn't make 12 servings... I found it easily made 10 servings. I didn't have any paper liners and I was worried that they would get stuck so I actually made them in those foil pie pans that you get from a frozen pot pie. It made 5 of them. I shared one with hubby for our intimate valentines dinner.

These are really good and rich and chocolatey. I think I would have liked them better with semi-sweet chips instead of bitter-sweet, though..

Big hit with the whole family. Used what was on-hand: regular sugar instead of Splenda; semi-sweet instead of bittersweet; strawberry pieces instead of raspberries. Still very enjoyable three days later out of the frig. & warmed up.

I had to fiddle with the recipe a tad, because all I had on hand were Sugar-Free semi-sweet morsels. Also, I only used one raspberry cut in half for each cupcake. They looked perfect and nicely risen while still in the oven, but fell when I removed them. They also had a very undercooked type of feel to the centers, but they passed the toothpick test, so I forged ahead. I ended up with an extremely fudgey (almost kind of wet) and crumbly texture. They were very good, but I think I will omit the fruit all together next time, as I believe that contributed to the near-sogginess. Kicks a chocolate craving in the face, though (in a good way!).

I JUST finished baking these and oh my, they smell heavenly! I didn't have any berries on hand, so I used strawberry jam instead, I think this worked wonderfully. I will definitely be making these again, the only thing I wish I had to go with it was some vanilla icecream! :) Thank you!
