This recipe was made on 7/17/14. Due to what was on hand a couple of changes were made. I didn't have bittersweet chocolate,so semi sweet was used. Didn't have the Dutch cocoa,so the same amount of Mexican cocoa powder was used.Other than those changes the recipe was made exactly as it was written. I don't know if using the Mexican cocoa made any difference or not, but the cocoa taste was overpoweringly strong. The texture seemed slightly on the dense side,but still o.k..

Chocolate heaven! So moist and spectacular tasting. Easy as well. Both DS and I thought these are the best brownies we've had in a long while!! Neighbors loved them too. The only problem is the recipe just didn't make enough. LOL A definite keeper!
