These are delicious. (We made them with walnuts.) The recipe was easy to make and it turned out really well.

We didn't care for these :( Not enough chocolate, I am not sure I'd even call them a brownie, honestly. Very odd, giving it 2 stars because others apparently liked it.

These were a hit. I used canola oil instead of shortening. I used a round 9" cake pan, which I filled 2/3 up (I still have batter left). They were not done in 30 minutes, perhaps because of the oil or the pan being a bit overly full. They were a tad overdone after 45 minutes.

WOW, just made these, eating one right now. I didn't have any nuts, so i added some peanut butter chips. And I added about 2T cinnamon just cause I like it. I used a jelly roll pan and baked for 30 min and they came out great. Thanks
