OK my brownies are done. It didn't take as long as some of yours did. I almost burned them, but they are fantastic. My husband and kids love them. Next time I will add extra such as nuts or chips.

These turned out awesome. I was looking to make a cake today, but didn't have any baking powder. Look this up, and it was a great alternative. Cooking time is about 35 mins like the others mentioned before me. But it was worth it!

Awesome recipe for a quick batch of brownies. Only thing I changed was I only used 1/2 cup of butter and substituted the other half cup with whole milk. I also added chocolate chips (milk chocolate not simi sweet for a sweeter taste.) if you use a stand mixer the mixing is easy and only add 1/2 cup of flour at a time when mixing also helps. Will be reusing the modified version of this recipe again!

 Bill (South Carolina) says:
I only had 1/4 cup cocoa so I halved the recipe, cut the egg to 1 egg and added about 1/4 cup Hershey's syrup. 8x8 pan for 25 minutes and they were so fudgey and good.
