I followed directions exactly. Gooey, oily, chocolate mess. Never set up, even after baking 20 extra minutes. Like eating half cooked batter. Can't figure out what went wrong.

Needed only 25 min in th oven, toothpick came out clean, perfect consistency. I recommend strongly that you use only ONE cup of sugar. To sounded excessive, so I just did one and the chocolate taste was perfect.

These brownies have a nice texture, especially after a day. However, they are too sweet.

Wonderful, I used local Costa Rican Chocolate and Cocoa (not Dutch Processed), likely Bri Bri indigenous person processed. Will make these again and again....
