  1. Fast, easy and really delicious! I love that I can have unprocessed chocolate sauce by using this recipe. I didn't even wait for it to cool down. Yum!
     
  2. Simply delightful. I made this using 2 tbsp of Splenda Brown blend and then enjoyed this with almost total abandon. Loved the coffee essence and what it does for the chocolate. :D
     
  3. I used hi-lo milk (sort of between full cream and skim) and otherwise made as per recipe and it really surprised me how thick and rich it was though I thought a little grainy and quite sweet and would certainly satisfy the chocolate craving and the DM loves you for this recipe as now she can have that chocolate hit without sending her blood sugars through the roof, I served it with recipe #482198 for an all round guilt free dessert. thank you tdaymond, made for the Best of 2013 tag game and recommended by Maito.
     
  4. Wowzers, this is such a delicious bittersweet sauce (that does not taste diet), and is super quick and easy. I can see why it made it into someone's best of the year cookbook, it's probably the best chocolate sauce I have ever made. It went wonderfully with both poached pears and with low fat vanilla ice cream. I wonder if you could use this as a low fat ganache. There was none leftover - 2 of us (piggily) ate this whole recipe in one sitting, so I did not get to refrigerate any to find out. I think I can stop my endless search for a light chocolate sauce now.
     
  5. Certainly an improvement on Hershey's! Love the subtle coffee flavor (I used the instant granules). Served over low-fat ice cream. Going to use this in my mochas, too! Made for Spring 2012 Pick a Chef game.
