Truffle Brownies
Fudgy and delicious!
These were fantastic! I have been looking for a thick, chocolatey, fudgy brownie recipe that can compete with the boxed hersheys brownies (my family adores them). These blew them out of the water! They are fantastic. I was skeptical when they were baking because they didn't seem firm enough, so I left them in for 20 minutes. They were divine hot out of the oven, very souffle like. But cooled down they are just as great!

JACKPOT--LITTLE BLACK DRESS OF A CHOCOLATE DESSERT
This is a gem of a recipe that makes it possible for anyone who can read and follow instructions to turn out a picture perfect and perfectly delicious chocolate concoction that is a sure crowd pleaser. And its is ridiculously easy to prepare. Be advised that the one pitfall to the recipe is the ganache. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup chocolate chips (4 ounces). Weigh it and use the full 4 ounces. If you just measure out half a cup it won't be nearly enough. Suggestion: a teaspoon of instant espresso powder is a nice addition to the ganache, as is finely zested rind of an orange in the brownie itself. Keep in mind this is really an elegant little cake and is not going to look like a mere batch of brownies, especially with its ganache glaze. I like to slice it into 8-12 wedges and serve with forks on dessert plates. Raspberries and whipped cream make a nice garnish. I baked mine in a spring form pan for 15 minutes and it was absolutely perfect. The cake bakes with the edges slightly raised, which makes a convenient way to ice it: pour the thick but still fluid ganache onto the top of the cake. Then tilt and rotate it all around so the ganache runs out to the very edges of the cake. It will then set into a flawless mirror finish. You're going to love this one!

Love it!
I grew up with the Baker's brownies, you know, the recipe that used to come in the back of the chocolate box. But since I don't have it anymore I decided to search for the perfect brownie recipe. When I saw the reviews for this one, I was really curious. Making these is a snap!! And the chocolate ganache adds an extra kick of chocolate to the recipe that makes them totally irresistible. I will be making them often. Well.. not too often. I want to be able to fit in my clothes too! Yay for this one!!

A Big Fan
I love to bake only the summers in Arizona are hot this recipe is so good and easy that I can suffer through the oven being on because I make four at a time and give as gifts and have extra for me. Thanks for all your easy and yummy treats.

Seriously i will never make my other brownies again! And info for those without unsweetened chocolate
So...i used to think that the Recipe from Ghirardelli was pretty good. Now I know I will NEVER make another brownie again-I finally found it. And they haven't even cooled or gone in the freezer, and I messed up! FYI: 1) I had no unsweetened chocolate so I used semisweet chocolate chips. I added a few extra tablespoons of semisweet chips to make up for the chocolate content (I guess unsweetened , since its pure chocolate, is more rich. To make up for the lack of chocolate, I added the extra chips) 2) I only added about 1/2 cup of sugar because I used the semi sweet chips and because I don't ever like how sweet the recipes are. 3) I used about a tablespoon less of butter because Scharffen Berger says to do this when substituting semisweet for unsweetened (on their website) 4) I used a round metal cake pan, buttered and sprinkled with coconut flakes to avoid sticking. AND to all those who forget to read directions like me..... I messed up by accidentally adding the sugar after the chocolate-no problem! So, I hope these will make it to the freezer. Slices have already disappeared.

WOW! THE MOST DELICIOUS BROWNIES EVER!
My family is a tough judge of recipes, but they all approved of this one! The recipe was so simple yet so delectable. It wasn't too sweet, but it sure did melt in my mouth. The texture is perfect and I highly recommend these!

Inquiry...
First of all, does the foodnetwork website have any kind of forums where I can post general questions? I searched and could not find anything. It seems like recipe feedback is the only way that I have to communicate with the rest of you, hence this posting, which is NOT feedback on this specific recipe. Apologies in advance if I missed the forums, and please point out to me where they are if they do, in fact, exist. That said, what I am looking for is a particular brownie recipe. In particular, this last Sunday, someone gave me some of the Costco "Two Bite Brownies". Laught at Costco all you want, but I thought that they were superb. They were everything that I want in a brownie: moist and chocolatety and slightly flaky; they kinda melt in your mouth. I do not like dry fluffy angle food cake like pastry in general, and that is what many brownie recipes seems to yield. What I would love from you guys is feedback to see if anyone has reverse engineered Costco's recipe (minus all the artificial crap that they likely put in it). Thanks in advance.

sinful gooey goodness!
When i made these brownies, i was highly doubtful, i thaught.. theirs gotta be some mistake, you have to freeze these brownies? what? and when i took them out of the oven, i thaught i did something wron because the didnt really look like the color of brownies. so i sceptically put them in the fridge and didnt tell anybody i made them, whell when i went back in the kitchen an hour later to make the frosting, THEY WERE HALF GONE! My family devoured these within a four hour time period! and when i tried them.. i couldnt put them down! these were great!!! and they almost had an expresso taste. they were everything id ever want in a brownie. chewey, fudgey, moist, chocolatey, delicious, and decidant! doesnt even need the frosting at all and very good cold! i will deffinantly make these for everyone i know!!

most delicious dessert ever!
This brownie was amazing! I have tried many brownie recipes and this is by far the best. It was so easy to make. I cooked them for around 22 minutes and they turned out perfect. Any time less I think would be too gooey with the glaze ontop. They have a beautiful shine and give a lovely presentation. I would HIGHLY reommend these.

Awesome!
I made these for my sister's wedding shower and they were a hit! Easy to make and serve. I doubled the recipe to make more, no problems. I suggest leaving them in the fridge until you are ready to serve....they are just fine at room temp, but when served chilled you get a better idea of the truffle filling inside!

Incredible!
Wow, these are really good! I am thinking of using the recipe as a chocolate truffle cake and just cut into small slices with some whipped cream, yum:)

Best Brownies Ever!
I taped this episode just for this recipe. I don't bake much, but I gave the recipe to a friend who does. They are right! This is the last and only brownie recipe I'll ever want... and I thought that Nigella's were amazing. They are, but these are even better for my taste. These brownies are incredibly fudgy and moist.

very good, rich
we made these and also Ina Gartens recipe for brownies. We really liked both of them, but I would say we liked these a bit better. The chocolate gnache on the top was just a nice touch and the brownies are very dense and rich. We will definitely make these again.

Delightful!
Living at 4500', I'm particularly happy with chocolate baked goods that do not require any kind of high altitude tweaking. This dessert came out perfect the first time, is beautiful to serve, and delicious. Thank you, Dan and Steve.
