Excellent! I made them exactly as directed, and used pecans. They are chewy, moist, and perfectly sweet! I will definitely make these again!

This recipe is really excellent! I brought them to one of my culinary classes and they were gone in seconds. They are chewy and moist and delicious. I'm making them for the second time now. One of the easiest recipes and tastiest!

I had an a large amount of pecans that I need to do something with.So I did a search and came across this recipe, and decided to try it.As I was reading the recipe, and thinking " That's a weird way to add the sugar to the recipe ". But I went ahead with it as written. The recipe was baked at the stated time and temperature, and I think that the next time these are made 10 more minutes will be added. Because after cooling for 2 hours, they were still a bit on almost too " gooey " side .To " FANCY " this up a bit I added a pecan half to each one of the squares. But I'm sort of a "brownie expert " ;) and must tell you, that this is one of the best brownie recipe that I've ever had the pleasure to eat. This will be made again. Thanks for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "
