I can definitely understand why reviewers said this was dry - I should have noticed right away that the flour amount was too much and also too much baking powder. Baking powder would be better reduced to 1/4 tsp and flour to 1/2 cup. Of course this is to make these to our taste. Certainly with these changes they will not be dry.

In place of walnuts we use chocolate chips. I usually have to triple this recipe because it is so loved!

We love these brownies, the perfect blend of fudginess and cake! I add the extra 2 T of butter and they're perfect! I have never needed to add to the cooking time. I also omit the nuts due to personal preference. And I typically double this recipe and use a bigger pan with no problem (remembering to also double the extra butter). I usually add extra vanilla to anything I bake but hubby made them last time and forgot the vanilla altogether and they were still pretty tasty-but I don't recommend that! Enjoy!

Very good. I agree with the other reviewers. I added two more tablespoons of butter. I wish I had chocolate chips--I would have added that also!!!

Great, I was a little skeptical because of others calling them dry, but these turned out delicious! I just added 2 tablespoons of butter and some German chocolate squares I bought from the store. I did not add the nuts, I sprinkled powdered sugar on the top and my whole family LOVED them. This was my first time baking brownies from scratch and it was great! I would definitely recommend this to a friend.
