They don't resemble brownies in anyway. They are flat as a pancake and bitter. There is no levening in the receipe to make them reise.

My kids loved these brownies but I think the unsweetened chocolate squares and relatively small amount of sugar gave it a slightly bitter, dark-chocolate taste. Nevertheless, with a few tweaks I think this is a great recipe!

I would rather eat leftover cocoa wheats. These are not brownies. The cocoa and butter taste good but I was too ashamed to let this out of the house. I thought it was going to be like a flourless cake but it is not something that should be made.

These were absolutely delicious!! I had no walnuts, so I omitted those, and I only baked for 20 minutes. The brownies are somewhat dense, very chocolatey and not too sweet. Just how I like them! Thanks!!!

I used this brownie recipe for a class I am in. I needed a brownie recipe that includes water, because my class experiment is replacing water with a different ingredient (a nutraceutical) to add healthy benefits to the food. THis recipe was EXCELLENT for what i needed it for. They came out moist and cakey (I took them out 5-10 min early each time). I have made them at least once or twice each week for this class and they are very consistent. However, they are VERY dark chocolate. Anyone in my class that likes dark chocolate LOVED this recipe. If you are a more milk chocolate person, use semi-sweet chocolate instead and I think you'll enjoy the recipe more. Its deffinitely for Dark chocolate lovers.

I had no idea chocolate could taste this awful! I'm not sure where this recipe goes wrong, but both the flavor and texture are very bad.

i personally loved this mixture! I love brownies but ive always found them too sweet. This however tasted slightly sweet but not over powering. i agree they were more cake than brownie but only just. so light yet chewy. i would say dont bother with salt and if you like it sweet just go for a sweeter chocolate. Thanks for posting this up! my partner will love them too.
