The misleadiing name alone makes this very disappointing because, unlike other reviewers, it DID matter to me whether or not these were brownies. I wanted these for a work function, where dealing with a too moist cake that doesn't stay in one piece wasn't an option. While the flavor is good, there's a fine line between being pleasantly moist and so moist it falls apart and borders on soggy. I would call this an "excessively moist" apple cake, not an apple brownie.

I made this for my wife tonight 10/20/09 and she loved it,so did my daughter and I. Added 1tsp vanilla and doubled the cinnamon,baked 350 for 40 minutes. When I removed it from the oven I dusted the top with cinnamon sugar.I used 3 freshly picked apples from NC 2-golden delicious and 1 red delicious. My wife wants me to add more apples next time. This is a great brownie/cake. It did fall apart.......but who cares!!!!!It is delicious...

I found tese to be delicious as well. Not exactly brownies but along those lines. I messed around with the recipe myself. My changes involved doubling the batch, adding only 3/4 of the total sweetener and I used a combination of white and brown sugars with about 1/2 C of Splenda. I also added 2 more apples which I sliced on the side of a grater. I also added nutmeg and more baking soda and powder than was called for. The result was sensational served warm with ice cream. I had mine as bars sans the ice cream. They were a bit tender but held their shape better than expected. In that way they were like brownies. They are very buttery and I like that!

I thought this recipe was good. It tastes just like apple cake to me. The only thing I don't like is that it falls apart when you try to take a piece out of the pan. I may have used bigger apples than I should have and ended up with too much. ? But otherwise I followed the recipe exactly and it's good.

The flavor was really exceptional, but they just fell apart. I can't figure out what I did wrong. I just disguised them under some vanilla ice cream when serrving. I would love to make again if anyone has any tips on how to make the ingredients gel together better. I used diced granny smith apples and topped the batter with cinnamon sugar before baking.

Holy apple goodness...I made these at my husbands request as I do not like cooked apples..the only thing I changed was I doubled the recipe and subbed half applesauce and half butter, I just had one and even though I dont care for cooked apples, this had to be the best apple tasting cake ever...next time I will not beat the eggs as another reviewer suggested to make them more brownie like..

The key to a denser, more brownie-like bar is to NOT whip the egg mixture. The fluffier it is, the more cake-like the finished product will be. I melted the butter and just stirred in the sugar and egg until well-combined. Very good! Could use some extra spices, perhaps. Thanks!!

Excellent buttery taste even when you substitute half butter and applesauce in place of the 1/2 c butter. I diced the apples as others suggested. This needed to bake just a little longer than the recipe states for me. I also found that the sugar can be cut back to 3/4 c, and it still tastes great. This has become a family favorite.

These are really moist and tasty. Didn't stay together as I thought they would but, hey, who cares? Good enough to overlook that and it may have been that I added a bit more apple. Will definitely make again (and again).
