This was like eating rich, creamy fudge! It was not gooey, but WAS deep, dark, chocolate deliciousness. I used 3/4 cup coconut sugar with 1 cup white, and then one 4 oz. Unsweetened baking bar (chopped) with 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips. I placed a glass bowl over my saucepan of simmering water to melt all the ingredients, which worked great; then baked 33 minutes. Oh, and I also tempered the beaten eggs with a spoonful at a time of the hot chocolate mixture. Excellent flavor! Thanks for the recipe!
