YUM! Used no nuts and subbed 3 TBSP cocoa with 1 TBSP oil for each oz of bittersweet chocolate. Very fudgey and rich!

This is a full proof recipe. I didn't have enough sugar or choc chips and so instead put 1cp of white sugar and 1 cp of brown sugar and sprinkled with nuts and it came out fantastic. It can be eaten warm or cold! I brought it to a funeral wake and people were talking about the brownies more than the funeral!

I'm a choc-o-holic and Mrs. Field's brownies are my favorite. Well, these brownies are absolutely wonderful. The first time I made them, I didn't read the recipe correctly and started melting the semi-sweet chips instead of the unsweetened baking chocolate. I continued with the recipe and added the unsweetened squares. I didn't think they would turn out right, but OMG...they were divine. This weekend, I decided to make some for Easter. This time, I followed the directions and they came out just as divine as the messed up version. Baking for 45 minutes resulted in a slightly gooey brownie, but I liked it that way. They were delicious chilled and, later, at room temperature. I will never make brownies any other way!!

When I first pulled mine out the oven, it was very cake-like, and I thought, "What did I do wrong?" Then I realized I hadn't chilled it yet. After chilling it turned out perfect!
