VERY tasty with a full bodied flavor. I was quite pleased. My kids liked it too! NOTE: If doubling the recipe, I did not double the chocolate, I used 1 1/2 ounces. I cheated and used a rotisserie chicken, Inspired by a Weight Watchers recipe. Use fat free or light ingredients to lower the calorie content.
