great also if you halve the butter, use fructose instead of sugar(halve that quantity too) and use all-purpose gluten-free flour! i also like to put marshmallows on the top:)

These brownies are amazing! They are not the chewy, hard brownies I remember as a kid, but light and fluffy; and so easy to make! I've made these about 3 dozen times now and they have not failed me yet (I make these as gifts for the holidays and have received nothing but compliments about them. I've even got a few requests for more)!

I'm very particular about baking recipes, but these brownies always turn out fabulous! They're quite decadent by themselves, so I always skip the frosting. The frosting is, however, a good recipe and worth keeping around for other uses. My husband's family is full of 'baking snobs' and these brownies made quite the impression.

The frosting was wonderful..very sweet even after I halved the honey, but very good. The brownies though were very cake-like. If you like that then this is your recipe but i was looking for something more like a real brownie. i also did not think the flavor was chocolatey enough, kind of blan.

I usually change one of the ingredients in a recipe, but this one I kept the exact same. I did use a larger pan so they'd be smaller, and I cut them to bite-size pieces. I doubled the batch. I threw in chocolate chips in the first batch and mini reese's pieces in the second batch. Both turned out great, so sinful. Btw, this was my first attempt at brownies from scratch, and I'm not going back! Thanks!

I liked these but there were extremely rich/heavy. My mom could only eat a very small piece. My dad managed to finish his but that's because he likes his sweets. My husband calls these my pound cake brownies.

These are great brownies! My boyfriend said that they were the best I've made (I usually use a Ghiradelli mix). I used coconut oil instead of melted butter- delicious! I'll definitely be using this recipe from now on.

These brownies are good. I wouldn't say "best", but a good recipe. I've said it before and I will say it again--I'm not baker. And every time I try to make brownies it's an adventure for me. These, however, turned out well for me. Gooey and fudgy on the inside, crisp on the top and chewy on the edges, which is what a brownie is supposed to be, right?! I did make one mistake, but it was my fault...I used coarse salt thinking it would dissipate while baking, of course it didn't and now I have salt crystals in my brownies...but they're still edible and yummy. Thanks for a good brownie recipe that made me a little more optimistic about my baking skills!

This was the perfect brownie, not too cakey, not too fudgey! Better then the box mix and just as easy.

OH MY...these are delightful brownies! We didn't find them too sweet at all..but I chose not to frost them. They are moist without being gooey, and stay together nicely without being too cakey. Really a perfect brownie. I would definitely recommend them and will be using this as my "go-to" recipe for quick and easy basic brownies from now on!

I guess I should have heeded the warning that these were sweet because they were, but they were still really good. I just at a little at a time and sprinkled the crumbs on top of vanilla ice cream. I'll make these again and reduce the sugar just a little bit.

This recipe is wonderful as is, even without the frosting! As others have mentioned it's perfect when mixed by hand. It turns out a bit too cakey if you use an electric mixer. Just like the box except with a richer flavor. It's so simple too, I was able to make it with the group of middle school students that I work with.

Okay I changed a few things only because I was missing a couple ingredients. Instead of butter I used coconut oil, instead of vanilla I substituted amaretto (2 tsp) and used a small box of jello mix (orange) to replace half the sugar. I also added some powdered milk (about 1/2 cup) I totally forgot the baking powder so they didn't rise as much as they probably would have for anyone who did use it. They turned out very moist so maybe next time I'll probably just use less of the coconut oil. Very tasty though and I think adding nuts (maybe chopped pistachios?) next time I try the recipe would work great with the existing flavors. A simple and tasty brownie recipe!

Fudgy, chewy and overall pretty good! I didn't make the frosting though, I figure that would be to much for these. They are great just as they are! =)
