I added a handful of peanut butter chips which was great but I think they would have been fine without them. They are almost like a brownie, just lighter. I made these today and they were great.

Also, in the center of each (using the method from the jam-filled muffins), I put about a tsp of mashed banana and a couple of butterscotch morsels. Soooo amazingly good! All my friends liked them, even the ones that usually look down on healthy foods. Thank you for this recipe! I made these yesterday and they were amazing!

I also had no yogurt or white sugar on hand so I used 3/4 of a cup of applesauce and 3/4 of a cup of unpacked brown sugar. They were sooo chocolatey and delicious! My boyfriend particularly liked that they were not too sweet and said that he would like to eat them for breakfast as well as dessert. I am really happy that I came across this recipe! I loved it.

As for the flour, there is a big difference between the whole wheat pastry flour and regular flour. The regular whole wheat flour will make your baked goods much more dense. If you are having a hard time finding whole wheat pastry, there are few things that you can try. First, you can put the regular whole what flour in a blender or food processor for just a few seconds to make it a less coarse, "finer" grain. If that is too much of a hassle, you can just swap the quantities on the all purpose and the whole wheat - for example, if it calls for 1 cup WW pastry flour and 1/2 cup all purpose, use 1 cup all purpose flour, and 1/2 cup regular whole wheat flour. Whew! That was a mouthful!! I hope that this helps - if you have any other questions, just let me know. -Shannon Erika,

Also, would this recipe work using splenda instead of sugar? Does it make a difference if I don’t have whole wheat pastry flour, but use plain whole wheat flour?
