  1. very versatile recipe. Easy to remember and quick to make.
     
  2. Good! Not as chocolatey as desired, but with our added chocolate chip sprinkled on top they were perfect. Although, after finding this recipe, we just used the back of the baker's chocolate box. :-)
     
  3. These have been some of my favorite brownies for ten years now....they really are very chewy, but the outside edges get nice and crispy. If you add the chocolate chips to the batter, try freezing the brownies after baking to get the chips nice and hard again. It makes for a nice, satisfying chew :)
     
  4. I wanted some brownies,but I didn't have all the ingredients for Recipe#130240,so I did a search and came up with this recipe. The first time I made these were several years ago,and they are just as good now as they were then.My SO enjoyed them so much he even took a couple of them to go with his lunch today.These will be made again,thank you so much for posting. "Keep Smiling:)"
     
  5. I co-worker made these and brought them to the office. I saw that recipe on the back of the box, but never dreamed they would be that good. These are delicious - soft, fudgey and just the way a brownie should be. Also, she used "Splenda For Baking" instead of sugar and they were still fabulous.
