I was wondering the same thing. Big difference between 16 squares and 40 squares.

This was tasty, my kids even like it. I'm going to try adding mint chips to the recipe for a little different flavor or possibly melt some mint chips on top.

So is the serving size 1/40 of the bar as the instructions lead me to believe or 1/16 as it says above? What is the calorie count of 44 per square calculating?

    This is such a great recipe! Using graham crackers for texture, the recipe is lightened up, but still has a rich flavor. The added benefit of real chocolate is one that has alot of doctors and nutritionists talking. Everything in moderation, right? Suitable for diabetics too.
