“My mom used to make a recipe like this when I was younger. I decided to make some healthy changes, and this version is as good, if not better than the original. Being a dietitian, I love to come up with ways to lighten up recipes. I would bake all the time if I could!” Jackie Termont - Elkhart, Indiana

Prune taste was disgusting, might be worth trying applesauce, but not worth the work since first try was horrible

Made this for the first time and will definitely be making it many more times. My entire family loved it-including my pickiest eater!

While the consistency of this cake was really good, it didn't taste a thing like hot fudge. The prune flavor overwhelmed the whole cake. I don't know how this passed TOH's test kitchen, but please don't waste your time or ingredients on it.

My family really did not care for this. They kept asking what the weird taste was, I'm assuming it was the prunes. I wonder if it would taste any different using applesauce? I will not be making it again to find out. Too bad, we really wanted to love it...

Very yummy! I used applesauce for the prunes as I had it in my pantry. Wonderful chocolate dessert!

Delicious, as good as my 'old' recipe for this dessert but better for you. We love the leftovers just slightly warmed in the microwave.

Very, very good!! I used to make the original (full-fat) version of this recipe. I love the fact that we can enjoy it in a healthier version--and it's a great portion size. Not a bite-size dessert. My whole family LOVES this recipe. We top it with Light Whipped Cream. Highly recommend for that chocolate craving when you are trying to eat healthier.
