    Excellent brownies, AB! These were very easy to make and turned out wonderful! Watch the video. That is key! There are some different tips that aren't in the written recipe, like the "sling" to take the brownies out of the pan. I've never taken brownies out of the pan that easily! Very nice, deep chocolate flavor and not overly sweet.

    This is, by far, the best recipe for brownies I have come across yet! They are more like the gourmet brownies you can find in high-end shops: super rich, buttery, and dense- yum! I found this recipe due to the fact I was almost out of granulated sugar, but had plenty of brown sugar. I had to alter the recipe a tad by using 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 3/4 cup confectioner's sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar. I also added about a 1/2 cup of pecans to that batter. I only recommend using a high quality cocoa for these brownies (not the one you usually find in a supermarket and I cut the amount down from 1 1/4 cup to 1 cup since I used a pricey belgian cocoa. After I spread the batter into the glass pan, I broke off pieces of a good bittersweet chocolate bar and inserted them through the top randomly. These brownies took 55 minutes overall to bake, but I did start checking at 45 minutes. I think 50 minutes would have also been fine.

    CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE!

    My dad always said that there are two flavors -- chocolate, and everything else! I totally agree with him, and this is one CHOCOLATE-Y brownie! YUM!

    These are great brownies. Nice and dense and 'fudgey.' I'm not a fan of cakey brownies, so these are perfect.

    these are THE best brownies I have ever had! I've tried out a couple other brownie recipes on this website, but none compare to AB's!

    Watch the video. It's also much more effective (and less of a pain, in my opinion to use the "sling" for the pan than to butter and flour it. These are my go-to for brownies. I regularly get the compliment that they're the best brownies the eater has ever had.

    I made these using Ghiradelli cocoa powder and they were sinfully delicious. I added 8 minutes baking time at 300 degrees because the middle still wobbled a bit much for my taste. The sifting of the ingredients made the brownies look like fudge going in the oven and did not disappoint when served with ice cream. It was a decadent New Year's Eve dessert that I took to my friends house.

    Excellent Brownies! SO I cooked these in a 13x 9 in baking pan and they cooked at exactly 45 min like the recipe said. I even bought cacao de pernigotti ( the GOOD stuff and walnuts (mixed the walnuts in with the flour. I will so use this again! they even came out of the pan clean!

    Watch the video because the directions are more helpful than the recipe alone and it differs somewhat (cutting the brownies while hot vs. waiting for them to cool etc.. I loved the texture of these. They're moist throughout with a crackly top. Not too sweet. Perfect with vanilla ice cream.
