This was okay, not necessarily what I would consider a traditional brownie, more like a cocoa bar cookie. Flavour was pretty good, but they didn't have that gooey brownie texture. One positive, they weren't super-sweet like some other low-fat brownie recipes. Bottom line: decent low-fat treat, but definitely not a substitute for the "real thing".
