This is a dense, moist brownie. You can use semisweet chocolate rather than bittersweet and the results are just as delicious.

Epic fail. Sadly, I did not read the advise to use a larger pan. I followed the recipe to a T and the batter was still soup after 45 minutes. Waste of time and money. One star is one too many.

This were very good. Everyone who tried them agreed they seemed more like a torte than a brownie however. We also agreed that they needed a little frosting, which I did. As others recommended, I used a 9x13 pan and only used 3 eggs.

Yum! I also followed the other reviewer's suggestion of 3 eggs and longer cooking time; brownies turned out very moist and rich. Used 12oz semisweet chocolate vs bittersweet/white chocolate per recipe. Overall a great brownie I'll be making again! Excellent served warm with ice cream.

The flavor of these was just what I was looking for, just bitter and sweet enough to complement the Guinness. However, even with the changes suggested to make them more 'fudgey' (3 eggs, 30 min) this still seemed more like a cake to me.

Phenomenal! You can't tell that there's beer in them! A five star recipe with the changes suggested by other reviewers: larger pan, three eggs, 30 min. cook time.
