I agree that you either love or hate this recipe. After tweaking the recipe a bit, these were the best brownies I've ever had. I used three eggs instead of two, increased the butter to 3/4 C, and sprinkled coconut and bits of dark chocolate as a topping before I baked it. I also increased the baking time to 38 minutes. They were dense and fudge like and very, very rich. This is definitely a "company worthy" dessert.

I found this recipe as a newly wed and five years later I'm still making it. I do make one change. I more than double the apples called for and then bake it for 60 minutes. This makes it a bit less cake like, but still retains the flavor of the original recipe.
