Our family thought these were pretty good! Good rich chocolate flavor. We made them exactly like the recipe calls for. They don't raise much, if any, so fill the cups up almost all the way. Next time will try another GF flour to replace either part or all of the almond meal. It was slightly gritty in texture, but still tasty!
