Very good brownies. Not too sweet but cocoa-ey and still moist as well as delicious. Just hard to remember to eat in moderation! :)

My husband and I really loved this brownie recipe. He loves sweets and he's a diabetic. I'm trying to lose some weight so I just tasted it. It was excellent. I loved it. Thank you for the recipe.

I loved this recipe and all my friends and family do too. I didn't have any chocolate essence, so I added orange essence instead, and it tasted wonderful. Just a little variation I thought would work.

How is this guilt-free? And 24 brownies in an 8 x 8-inch pan. These are just as bad for you as anything! Terrible recipe.
