haven't tried this recipe yet but I see that it calls for flour twice in the ingredients list. I'm going to make some now and will let you know how they turn out.

I can't fairly give this recipe a five because I didn't bake them. They look pretty though. The kids thought they were fun to make.

Gave these out for Christmas, and got positive reviews back. Also saved one for myself to try (so I knew what it was I was giving away) and they were R-E-A-L-L-Y good--some of the best brownies I've ever had!

These are RICH! They are the best brownies I've ever had! Very rich, cut them up small. I made them for Christmas gifts and kept one jar for me:) Made them up about 3 months later and the sugars were kinda hard but they still turned out wonderful. I tasted them right after being assembled in December and they were very fresh tasting.

I tried making these before giving them as a gift, and I used 1/2 cup of oil, 2 eggs, and 2 T of water. I think that it could be cut down to 1/3 cup, because they were a bit oily. I baked them about 28 minutes and they looked done, but they came out very gooey and I had to throw away some of the brownies in the middle of the pan since they weren't fully cooked. But, the feedback on the cooked ones was wonderful! Great recipe. And the jar was beautiful when put together. I used m&ms instead of the nuts.

A few years ago, I made a ton of these for Christmas and passed them out. It was such a good gift. They look so nice too. I thought that the appearance was a little better than the taste, but they were still good! I still had people call for the recipe!

It was delicious but a little too rich for my taste to make them often.

If this is a gift, use a poem for the baking instructions and tape it to the jar. Here’s a little Christmas treat Let’s begin, start with some heat 350 degrees to be exact Grease a pan, 9 inches square, 2 inches flat Find a bowl, and pour the jar out Have some fun and mix it all about Add 1 tsp. vanilla, 2/3 cup oil Beat in 3 eggs, no need to toil Pour in the pan, get ready to wait 25-30 minutes or until baked

These are great to make for gifts! They taste great aswell. The only thing I could say was a problem, was the brown sugar got hard after sitting in the jar for about a week.

I received as a Christmas gift from my sis-in-law, reviewer CPHOGO, a couple reviews below mine. I don't know if it was the changes in the measurements of the wet ingredients or my brand new oven, but I had to bake them longer than 30 minutes. They were very rich, dense, indulgent and yummy. If I were to make them, I'd use 3 eggs instead of 2 to make them a little more cake-like, and omit the nuts. My family enjoyed them warm with a nice tall glass of milk!

I made these brownies for gifts for Christmas. The girl I made them with her husband said they were the best brownies he had ever tasted. I did follow others advice and used 1/3 cup oil and 2 eggs and 2 tbsp water. This has become my brownie recipe of choice. Just double the recipe and make a 9x13 pan. A tasty variation, omit the nuts and substitue the vanilla chips with peanut butter ones, then once they come out of the oven, put Reese mini cups on top. Very tasty combination.

Wow - these are great! I made 9 jars of them to give away at Xmas. I baked a batch for myself and agree with the people who made this change: 1/2 cup oil, 2 eggs and 2 T water. Excellent!!

Good base, but WAY too much oil. They also had a cake like consistensy. Next time I will make with 1/2 c. oil & 2 eggs. My 2 year old didn't like them.
