    So easy to make I have made them 3 times in the last week. Serving them up with raspberries and ice cream to my friends and family and also varying the recipe by using milk chocolate instead of plain and dotting the top with chocolate buttons.

    Thank you! I have been looking for an easy brownie recipe that doesn't cost the earth to make! I used half dark muscovado sugar and half caster sugar. I served with fudge pieces scattered over the top with ice cream as a party desert! Kids wolfed it down!!!

    I tried a slight variation of this recipe that turned out pretty well. I used dark chocolate and half caster, half brown sugar and then added mixed dry fruit before cooking. Yummy!!

    I used this recipe last night, I followed the recipe to a Tee but my brownies came out more like sponge than brownies! What did I do wrong? I've always struggled with brownies, sponges I'm great at! I have a fan assisted oven, should I always reduce the temperature for recipes unless otherwise stated? Help please someone?!

    Chang1982: I have not tried this particular recipe yet but here is another BBC one that I use regularly. I have a fan oven too and following the recipe exactly gives me perfect brownies. Towards the end of cooking touch the edges lightly, when they start to feel a little crispy then they're done. Hope this helps :) http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/richchocolatebrownie_1933

    I'm with you Chang1982, followed recipe exactly and turned out like a massive cake, which was fairly dry to be honest not Brownie like at all!

    followed the recipe but it turned out like a massive cake. Was not like a brownie at all. Also the middle of it didn't cook i left it in the oven for over 20 mins still soggy and horrible.
