    Always a winner. I add different things to the mix occasionally. Favourite being sour cherries soaked in brandy.

    No other brownie recipe compares. Excellent straight from the freezer, on a hot day!

    Skipped the nuts and made half quantities which was the perfect amount for a 20x20cm square pan. Followed the recipe otherwise and they were great, really tasty and fudge like in the middle. Would make again.

    Probably the best brownie recipe I've found yet. I like the fact it uses only real chocolate and not cocoa powder. These came out super squidgy, which my partner said was perfect but I'd probably increase cooking time ever so slightly next time just to get them a bit firmer. I omitted the nuts and added some white chocolate chips instead.

    These have been my favourite brownie recipe since I first tried it over 10 years ago.. still haven't found anything to beat it. I omit the nuts due to personal taste..
