These were very good. I made 20 batches to take to a bake sale at my kid's school in my Perfect Brownie Pan and they were all gone within about 15 minutes. I had three ladies come and ask me for the recipe and I emailed this pages link when I got home, so hopefully you will be getting a bunch more reviews. These were definitely very fudgy and delicious. I can see this being whipped up quite often when we want a chocolate fix as they were simple and delicious. Thank you so much Lavender Lynn. Made for PAC Spring 2014.

Very good brownies, Lynn. I cut the recipe in half and baked for 20 minutes in a disposable brownie pan. Came out nice and moist, just like I like them. Thnx for sharing! Made for Comfort Cafe Snow Queen Chalet Jan 2010.

Very good brownies!!! I baked mine for 25 minutes as you suggested might be a good time to check again. They came out a cross between chewy and cakelike brownies which might please everyone regardless of preference. I put finely chopped pecans in mine. They won't last long here!!! Thanks for the recipe. ~Lorie

I made these on 1/31/08 for "Comfort Food Photos 2008" .The taste was good,but not as fudgy as I would have liked.And I don't know if baking them at 25 minutes instead of 20 had anything to do with them being dry.But thanks for posting,and "Keep Smiling :)"

next time i will make these in 2 8x8" pand so they cook through. my oven might be off, but i had to bake for 35 minutes and the center was still totally wet. you didn't mention cooking temp, so i checked my basic "how to cook everything" cookbook by mark bittman who had this exact recipe in half and recommended 350.
