  1. Well, I made these over the weekend to take to a party and there’s good news and bad news. They were really delicious. Yes fattening but that’s what a brownie is, a treat. The bad news is they were almost impossible to get out of the pan in a neat way. What a mess. I literally was molding them with my fingers to get them into an acceptable shape to go in a paper cup. There is way too much of the soft middle layer which makes it impossible to handle and too rich. That layer should be subtle not overwhelming. I used an 8×8 dish and the whole thing came right up to the very top. Next time I’ll use a much bigger baking dish and cut down on the volume of the middle layer.
