I had zero Italian language skills when I went to Italy for the first time in 1995 to meet my husband’s family. However, I did pick up some excellent dessert-making skills from Maria, his sister. They now want that I prepare her tiramisu anytime we visit! This was her recipe!

My daughter is allergic to the cocoa in chocolate so I’m always looking for a recipe she can eat. We made this as written except that we put in Hershey’s birthday cake kisses instead of the chips. The flavor was over-the-top fantastic. We made ours with a cake mix from Aldi which is smaller (14 ounces) and even with that, the batter was pretty dry and sticky. It also looked like too little batter to put in a 9×13 pan so we baked it in an 8″ square pan. They came out with the perfect thickness and consistency. I will definitely make this again, maybe trying it with butterscotch or white chocolate chips next time.
Making this recipe as is didn’t workout for me. it was super dry so I ended up adding more milk. even doing that, once it was done the taste was awesome but the texture wasn’t there for me. it didn’t have a cake or brownie texture, just kinda gooey all around. it’s a good base recipe but needs a little work
Loved this simple recipe baked in an 8×8 and pie shell. Next time I will find a Carmel sauce recipe and bake all the mix in pie shells . Perfect texture. Loved them
These were very sweet, but yummy . I had toffee bits, so I used those in replace of chips. I bet the chips are delicious too. I followed some other reviewers by increasing the milk to 1/2 cup and adding an extra egg. Next time, I may add a bit of vanilla.
Quick delicious dessert! I will definitely be making again.
So I added the second egg and did the 1/2 cup of milk instead of the 1/3. It fluffed up a little more than I like but tastes well.
Okay recipe. Batter was too thick. Bland and overly sweet. I probably wont make them again.
Mine turned out horrendous! I am not a good baker regardless, so I don’t know why I expected a masterpiece this time around :s Anyways, mine did not cook throughout at all … I ended up testing a cooked corner but there was no hope. I supposed I could have tried throwing it back in the oven for a lot longer, but probably better for my thighs in the trash can.
After reading reviews, I used a half cup of milk and added a pinch of kosher salt and capful of vanilla extract, but followed recipe here otherwise. After baking in convection oven at 325F for 15 minutes, I upped the temp to 350F for the remaining 15- 20 minutes. (I used a butter cake mix and an entire regular size bag of semi-sweet morsels). Tuned out great and our house smells amazing!
Hit the spot. I had almost expiring white cake mix, along with all the other ingredients, so I thought I’d give it a try. Like other reviewes, I added a little milk (1/4 cup) and used white chocolate chips. Very good. I’ll definitely make them again
I took them to work and everyone seemed like them. I followed the reviews and used extra milk. They turned out very delicious and moist.
I made this recipe only changing butterscotch chips to white chocolate chips (only because that’s what I had on hand) and they are soooo delicious. Great, easy recipe!
Decided try this recipe out, and it was a big hit with the family. From reading most of the reviews I decided to also increase the milk to 1/2 cup and the egg to 2. I also went with chcolate cake mix instead of white.
I loved these! And I don’t like blondies. These were quite sweet, and I liked that! After reading all the reviews I decided to up the liquid. The chocolate brownies I make use oil so I used the 1/3 cup milk and then added about 1/4 cup oil. I must have gotten lucky when spreading these out, I used a plastic spatula and maybe the oil helped, but I just got on a roll and was able to push and smoosh the batter down and filled a 9×13 pan perfectly. I baked about 10 min. longer. I also put tinfoil down in a glass baking dish cause I wanted to be able to pull the whole thing out so I could cut nice squares for a potluck, this worked, but the ends where I didn’t have tinfoil it got a little darker and crisper, which I liked. I’ll be making these again for home, but without the tinfoil. Oh and I really liked the white cake mix for these! Thanks so much for the recipe!!!!
Has potential, but tooth-aching overly sugary. It would be better as say a lemon cake mix with caramel pieces or berries or even switching the butterscotch chips with a semi-sweet chip to balance out the sweet (but then they wouldn’t be white brownies, I suppose). Definately not in my keep file.
Smelled great while baking! It did puff up quite a bit. I used a shallow 9×13 brownie pan, and it rose to the very edge of the pan. Used white chocolate chips instead of butterscotch so they were truly white brownies. The center pieces definitely taste better than the edges. May be a good idea to add more than one cup of chips. I also used 1/2 c. milk and 2 eggs. Update: Didn’t go over very well at Super Bowl party I took them too. Maybe too many other dessert choices.
my kids love these! i use funfetti cake mix and white chocolate chips. i also don’t use brown sugar.
Super delicious!! I made it pretty close to as written, but substituted white chocolate chips instead of butterscotch since that was all I had. It was a great choice. Tasted pretty brownie-like to me, and didnt need any extra bake time like other reviews suggest. Maybe the issue was different ovens.. Either way, I will definitely be making these again. YUM
Nothing special. They lasted over a week. I will stick with regular brownies.
These were just ok. Though I like dense bars, I wish these would have risen a little more. Maybe another egg? Even though I’m not one to like baked goods that are super sweet, these could have been a little sweeter, & I even added a couple pinches of brown sugar more than called for. Just the right amount of chips & a nice texture before baking, easy enough to spread. Think I’ll try a blondie recipe next time for taste & a “higher” bar though.
Upped the milk to 1/2 c. This is an excellent, versatile recipe! The better has to be thick to keep the chips from all sinking to the bottom during baking.
