Delicious, but tweeks have to be made for high all, Member thephantomgirl

Very moist and delicious brownies, though if you are at a higher alltitude I would suggest cooking at 300 degrees farenheit and cook time for 40-50 min so that your bownies do not sink! Very good brownies and I will bake them again
