I used vegetable oil in place of the butter and dark chocolate cocoa instead of regular cocoa and left out the nuts. Then topped with powder sugar. They looked great and were delicious! Very easy to make and very chewy.

Delicious!! I halved the recipe and baked in a 9x9 pan. Took the recommendation of others and used a little less flour (just under 3/4 cup for half recipe). Baked for exactly 20 minutes. No more boxed mixes for me- this is just as easy and much tastier!

Doubled the recipe, reducing the amount of flour as recommended, and baked in a sheet cake pan. It's overflowing and taking much longer to bake. It tastes great, though.

These were amazing@ I used only 1 1/4 cups of flour, and I added 1 cup of chocolate chunks. Fabulous!!!!!

I love Cakey Brownies, I will keep this recipe. I think that I would cut down on the sugar maybe 1 1/2 cup and would had cup of chocolate morsels. I personally felt it tasted very sweet, husband and children loved it overall I also loved it. will keep this recipe.

Quick...and easy, yup. Tasteless and bland? yep. I too, used just one cup of flour, still too cakey for my taste...brownies = fudgey somewhat gooey in my book. Won't make again, just not our cup of tea.

Great Brownies! The only difference I made was the cocoa, I went a little heavier with 3/4 cup. Mine were done in 20 minutes.

These were wonderful! I took the suggestions made by others and increased the chocolate to 3/4 c. and decreased the flour to just a smidge over 1 c. They weren't too fudgy nor too cakey. Perfect! I didn't bother putting in the nuts or icing on them. They didn't need it! I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the changes I made.

Very good! I did not have butter or shortening so used olive oil. Somebody found out and warned me the brownies would be gross. They were amazing despite a slight veggie aftertaste! It is very hard to ruin a good recipe. I think the olive oil cut the sugar a bit which I would think is a good thing considering there is more sugar than flour. I will most certainly keep this in mind for the next time I must make brownies!

I was looking for an easy brownie recipe so my 2 year old daughter could help me bake them. I made them exactly as written. We ate them warm out of the oven and I was a little disappointed - they seemed cakey. Hours later, when they cooled, they were FABULOUS. Rich, moist, and chocolatey. I don't like a lot of hooplah in my brownies - no chocolate chips or icing, so this is perfect for me. Thanks!

Great recipe. Easy, very good. I put a little more cocoa than called for...just because I wanted to finish the container.

Instead of using just coca powder, I also used instant coffee to get some flavor in there.

WOW! These turned out so yummy. I realized after getting started I only had 1 cup of white sugar, so I added 1 cup of brown sugar. Used only 1 cup of flour, as others had recommended. Only had one stick of butter, so I added a 1/2 cup of veg. oil. Also omitted nuts-added mini chocolate chips and toffee bits instead. Used a 9 x 13 pan, sprayed with Baker's Joy;cooked for 35 minutes.
