Fudgey and intensely chocolate, it is hard to imagine anything could make these brownies better, but the little surprises in each bite of the crunchy macadamias was just heavenly. I did make these with Splenda brown sugar blend to cut the carbs, but I didn't notice anything untoward from using that. But most of all, these are the best brownies I have tried on Zaar, and I have been here for seven years. That's real high praise, and very much deserved. Thanks for sharing.

Wow great delicious and moist. My youngest daughter liked them a lot. I can't wait for my oldest to get home to have some cuz she a brownie freak as well. My photo doesn't do any justice to the recipe. Of all the photos I took all blurry except for 1. But I won't bore you with it. I'm saving this for next time. Thank you, made for "Cooks With Dirty Faces for ZWT5"

Unbelieveably delicious was the general consensus of all who tasted these brownies! I baked these for my office Christmas lunch and they did not last. I must say, there were several desserts there when I left but the brownies were gone! That's a clear sign this recipe deserves more than 5 stars! They are soft and gooey and a little crisp on the corners and very chocolaty. Thanks! **This was saved in my Top Recipes of 2008 Book.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
