These were delicious. No one could believe all there was inside was Snickers. I did follow the advice on another review--Check after 15 mins....mine were done perfectly at that time limit. Try these, if you LOVE chocolate, you won't be disappointed.

I thought these were good but not great. I was kind of expecting more from the other reviews. This recipe definitely gets serious points for being easy and unique. None of my guests could guess what was inside and they all seemed to really like it. We served 1/2 a chimichanga per guest with vanilla ice cream and cinnamon sprinkled on top (didn't bother with the chocolate syrup, whipped cream, or cherries). Ultimately, when I finished my plate, I had enjoyed it but didn't really want more (and that's usually the sign of a GREAT dessert). Would be a fun recipe to do with the kids.

These were scrumptious! So rich and...oops, I forgot I was on a diet, but I'll keep that a secret! I drizzled some caramel ice cream topping over the top also, in addition to switching the chocolate syrup for some hot fudge. Oh my. If I wasn't so full I'd go and have another...

You're right - very easy! I can't eat these because of the sugar, but those who did said that they were very good. Mine got a little bit too brown, so next time I will set the timer for 15 minutes and keep checking from there. Thanks for posting.
