Really loved these brownies. They came out great, fudgey centre and slight crunch on top, a big hit, will make them often!

I increased the cocoa and the sugar as some reviewers had suggested but the sugar should not have been increased because these were WAY too sweet. When I bit into a brownie, I could literally feel the sugar crystals in my mouth, that's how heavy the sugar was. I wouldn't risk making these again.

I followed some of the recommendations and altered the recipe because I did not want cakey brownies. I used 2 eggs, used no baking powder, doubled the cocoa powder, used 8x8 metal pan, 35min - no convection fan. The brownies came out chewy and rich. My rating is based upon my alterations, not really fairr to the original. I will make this again according to the recipe.

I made these brownies twice yesterday; once exactly as written and next adding 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. Ohhh yeah, this is my new brownie recipie. They are chewy, moist, fudgey, chocolatey delishousnes. The only way to make them better would be a big scoop of ice cream. So my advice is add the cocolate chips but don't change anything else! If you want fudgey brownies, find a different recipe because this one is perfect!

This is the same recipe that my mom used to make homemade brownies when I was a kid. I think it is just as easy as the boxed brownies but without all the preservatives. I have made these with 2 and 3 eggs and I do prefer using only the 2 eggs for a chewier brownie.

Must be one of the few that has not rewrote this recipe (I will not rate a recipe unless I make it as submitted). We happen to like cake line Brownies and, also, these are very good for bake sale purposes because they hold their shape and cut easily. Thanks for submitting

I made the recipe in a 9x13 pan without doubling, and the brownies turned out great. I like thinner, fudgy brownies so I incorporated changes described by other reviewers. I used 2 eggs, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 stick of butter, 1/4 unsweetened applesauce, 3/4 cup of flour, and 1/2 cup of dutch process cocoa. Lining the pan with parchment paper was very important as it prevented the brownies from sticking without adding calories. I also baked for 20 minutes, which left the brownies just a touch overdone. For a 9x13 pan, I probably should have baked for 15-18 minutes. The recipe was delicious, I am just not sure if it is better than store mixes.

I can only give 3 stars because I don't really care for the original recipe. They aren't brownies by ANY means - it turns out to be cake. Like some other reviewers, I made some revisions and they turned out AMAZING. I only used 1/2 c. butter, added 1/4 c. applesauce, upped the cocoa to 3/4 c, omitted the baking powder completely, and added about 3/4 c. chocolate chips. With these, they're absolutely amazing, and the perfect fix for any chocoholic!

I loved how simple it is and how flexible the recipe is (many alterations suggested!). I made with two eggs, 1/4 tsp baking powder and 3/4 cup cocoa. It was perfect for my daughter's birthday 'cake'. They had just enough substance to stack nice and high!

Help!!!! I am a Brownie Lover and these Brownies were not even close to a great Brownie. The crappy box version was far better. I made this recipe 3 times using The orignal then the two other suggestions from the reviews including adding the special dark chocolate unsweetned with a less than favorable result. The one bowl Brownies came out better and I so wanted to taste the decadence that was raved about...Just wasn't there.

Like other reviewers, I also eliminate one egg and the baking powder. These brownies are especially good if you add something like chocolate chips, nuts, or a cream cheese marble topping. Yum.

I woke up Sunday morning forgetting I had volunteered to bring brownies to the kids church - jumped online and found this recipe! I modified the recipe as suggested to using 2 eggs, no baking powder, used 3/4th cup of cocoa powder, and added 3 add'l tablespoons of sugar. These are awesome brownies! Better than the box...highly recommended!

These were wonderful and very moist! I used 2 eggs and added some semi sweet chocolate chips and pecans. I also made a batch with 5th avenue toffee chips and that was so yummy :-P This recipe is good by itself but if i had to pick a fave from all the batches I have made I would say use toffee chips you will be amazed at how sinful and delicious it is!

I've been looking for a good brownie recipe, something rich and soft. After trying several, this is the best I've found. I cover mine so that they don't get crusty on top, and they come out great. I've even used yogurt instead of butter, it doesn't come out as rich, but it I like to think it's a little healthier that way.

I took other reviewers advice and only used 2 eggs, substituted 1/4 C apple sauce for butter, reduced baking powder to 1/4 tsp, used a heaping 1/2 C unsweetened cocoa powder, added 1/4 C coarsely chopped dark chocolate pieces, and 1/4 C chopped walnuts. I kept it everything else the same. I cannot believe how good these turned out. I will never buy another boxed brownie mix. I have tried various recipes, but they always came out "cakey". I cannot express how good this recipe is. Thank you so much for the recipe, and the ideas from other reviewers.
