I tried making these before giving them as a gift, and I used 1/2 cup of oil, 2 eggs, and 2 T of water. I think that it could be cut down to 1/3 cup, because they were a bit oily. I baked them about 28 minutes and they looked done, but they came out very gooey and I had to throw away some of the brownies in the middle of the pan since they weren't fully cooked. But, the feedback on the cooked ones was wonderful! Great recipe. And the jar was beautiful when put together. I used m&ms instead of the nuts.

This was delicious. I substituted three carrots for one of the red peppers, but otherwise followed the directions exactly, and it turned out wonderfully!

WONDERFUL! However, I used about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of strong coffee, mixed with about 6 tablespoons of Kahlua and 4 tablespoons of rum. I don't know how 1/4 cup of coffee could ever be enough! I dunked the ladyfingers in the liquid rather than drizzling it on top, and this made for the perfect consistency and flavor of the ladyfingers. Don't be afraid to do this--they are supposed to be soaked and a bit mushy. I brought this to work and was told this is better than the Olive Garden's tiramisu.
