Questions & Replies

  1. are these easy to make?
     
  2. I prefer to bake by weighing flour (since a cup of flour can vary so much in weight, depending on how you scoop it into the cup.) So I'm hoping that SweetsLady could tell us. Or anyone who has made this successfully--can you weigh your cup of flour and let me know? Thanks!

Reviews

  1. Just what I was craving! Super yummy! I was a bit skeptical of this recipe after reading the reviews, but it comes out just as descibed if done right. The batter will feel much more like dough, and will need to be plopped into the plan and spread rather than poured. It will seem very thin before baking, but it rises quickly to about 1 inch (perfect size for me). I only needed to bake mine for a little under 20 minutes before it was completely done. Note: The brownie will seem cakey if you cut and eat it right away! For the perfect chewy brownie, you must wait for it to cool completely. Wait atleast another 10-20 minutes before cutting. The colder, the chewier. Great recipe, I will definitely be using it again!
     
  2. Luv these brownies! So chocolately and chewy. Perfect recipe. I would however, recommend doubling the recipe for a 9 x 13 pan. Otherwise they are a very thin brownie, but sooo yummy!
     
  3. In my 76 years, I've never made brownies from scratch before. Followed the exact recipe including chocolate chips and nuts and what a wonderful surprise. They are the best moist and chewy brownies I've ever had. Made them for a Birthday dessert because no one wanted cake. Everyone had seconds and then took the leftovers home with them. So easy to make, will never use a box again. I'll definitely be making these many times in the future.
     
  4. This is exactly what I have been looking for. Made half a recipe and added 2 t. espresso coffee granules. Baked in 9X9 pan. Had to use wet hands to spread them out but was just fine. 20 min. was perfect.
     
  5. Best brownies I've ever tasted! I didn't have quite enough cocoa, so I substituted chocolate chips for the balance. Now, if I can just refrain from eating the entire pan in one sitting. Haha! Just kidding ... sort of. ;-)

Tweaks

  1. I also added white chocolate chips
     
  2. I added 8 tiny milky way bars into it
     
  3. Added walnuts and heath bar crumbles.
     
  4. I found the recipe a little too dry, so I added another 2 tbsp of warm water, and now it has the perfect consistency and is much more moist.
     
  5. I loved this recipe. My guy really likes the healthiest variations and we had just run out of fiber brownies that we buy from the grocery...so I thought I'd made them from scratch! So instead of butter I used coconut oil (worked wonderfully!) Also I used 1/4 cup benefited (no one Noticed and boy does it give you a good reason to eat a treat!) Also used whole wheat flour! I topped it with chopped nuts and chocolate chips. To die for! ;) so soft and moist and decadent. :) It was WONDERFUL. All five kids loved them! I love this recipe because with my changes it proved to still be a keeper--very versatile. I will be writing this one down.
