Flooded my microwave, gooey sponge leftovers were very hard to clean off the microwave, adjusting power didn’t help. Something is terribly wrong with this recipe

I think you need to add a caveat about microwave wattage. Mine were half cooked when first removed. Putting them back in for an additional 3 minutes helped. Still, I believe that was mostly the fault of the microwave.

This recipe was amazing 
Christina French
did not work at all
Robert Lopez
Unbelievable recipe that w irked like a charm!  I substituted 9 teaspoons of cocoa powder with 3 teaspoons of butter because I didn’t have the unsweetened chocolate bars.  I didn’t have chocolate chips so I added pecans and coconut. So fast and easy to make that this is how I will make brownies from now on!

I was really excited to make these but they did not turn out as i expected. They were chewy and not crunchy. Also way too sweet and buttery. Would not Recommend, very disappointed.

I dont know Im I really weird or something but I went into this recipe with extremely low expectations and they turned out amazing. Like lowkey my favorite brownie recipe. I added some expresso powder which may have helped a deeper flavor. But overall if you dont want to use an over, this is the way to go.
