    Great brownie recipe! They turned out perfect. I baked them at 325 degrees for about 55 minutes. They were thick, and full of rich chocolate flavor.

    Yummy I loved them. The taste of a rich chocolate and soft scrumptious brownie without the gagging over sweet. I followed the recipe to the "t" and easy peasy. Ladies or a Gentleman good ingredients is a key factor. Thanks Alton:
    Oh FYI for those sweet tooth people sprinkle powdered sugar or vanilla frosting. NOT me

    Choose another brownie recipe. This one doesn't work. Turned my gesture of kindness of making brownies for my family into something quite the opposite in that the house smelled like delicious brownies, but there were no brownies! Boo!

    We loved this recipe. I had a brownie craving that was 3 days strong but refused to leave my warm house to go to the store. I found this recipe and luckily had all the ingredients. We LOVED them! My fiance says they are one of the best he's ever had (and he's a brownie snob. Will never buy a box mix again!

    I'm a very experienced baker and have made brownies hundreds of times with many recipes. I tried this because it was a cocoa based recipe and I was out of solid baking chocolate. These were not done at 45 minutes/300 degrees; it took a full hour. When I attempted to cut them after they were fully cooled, the crust separated from the base which was very moist and uncooked in the center. The flavor is great but the texture is a problem. I would recommend baking them at 350 degrees or higher; 300 is too low for this very moist recipe.

    The perfect TRADITIONAL brownie texture! The cocoa returns a deep, dark chocolate flavor. Maybe not for those looking for milky chocolate. Moist but not cakey or too dense. You may have to fiddle with the cooking temp and time as I did. I gave it about 1 hour at 300 then cranked the oven to 350 for about 15 more because I was impatient.... still delish and worth the wait.

    This was probably the worst brownie I have ever eaten and it took much longer than 45 minutes to cook

    I love Alton Brown but these didn't come out as amazing as I'd hoped. The recipe overall is pretty good and they look great. It tasted like too much cocoa powder, maybe just 1 cup would do. I had to cook it a little long than 45 mins.
