These aren't that yum yum, but are just okay. I don't think I will be making these again.

These were a special treat for the family! They are a wonderful little moist chocolate party for your mouth. I will keep this one handy to make again and will look for an excuse to do so. Thanks! Made and Reviewed for PAC Spring 09

My 6 year old made this recipe for the Kid's Cooking Forum's Zaar World Tour 4 Challenge. He basically made the entire recipe by himself and was ecstatic that they were sinfully delicious. We had some of the filling left-over, but that may be because of uneven scooping. It will be fun making another recipe to use it for! Thanks luvinlif2K! Whine and Cheese!
