These brownies were easy to make, however, they were not chocolatey enough. They were extremely spongy and light. The chocolate icing on the top just seemed to clash with the non-chocolate flavor of the brownie.

i made these yesterday for a sale we had at work. they came out a bit dry, i guess i left it in the oven too long, thank God i put some nuts in the mix so it was saved. my grocery didn't have buttermilk so i used normal milk and mixed it thicker than usual. what is the best substitute for buttermilk?

I made these since I had buttermilk and wanted to use it. The brownies have the same nice, moist texture as Hershey syrup brownies but not the chocolate taste. I'm sure these would be good with chocolate frosting to kick up the flavor but my husband doesn't like frosting so I used powdered sugar. They don't have much flavor that way.
