Sweet Jesus take me home! THESE ARE AMAZING!! They combine my favorite flavors chocolate and raspberry! Everyone that had them raved about them! I did have to increase the baking time by about 10 minutes. I also have to say - I don't know what I did to the Fudge sauce you reccomended but that was a total bust!

Made for zaar tag. This was easy to make but I'm sorry we just didn't like it. Had to cook it about 10 minutes longer than suggested. Taste was not as good as I had hoped. It is a weight watchers recipe, which I tend to like most of their recipes. Sorry, SusieQusie, maybe someone else will like this better.
