That sounds delicious... but, sliced at 12 pieces it is 14.25 grams of carbs. I didn't realize chocolate was so jammed with carbs. Maybe I could reduce carbs by using all splenda... then again... maybe I'd eat too much of it.

I wonder if you could use baking cocoa instead of the chocolate...or maybe if you used a higher percentage chocolate...like the 85% cocoa ones.

I'd end up eating the whole lot!
