I was very disappointed with how these brownies turned out. I was expecting a dense, fudgy brownie, but I ended up with something much closer to chocolate cake than a brownie. I also had to bake an extra 10 minutes because they weren't done in the time specified. The chocolate flavor is good but not great, but I do like the icing and will use it on other brownie recipes. Definitely too cakey for me though.

OMG, I made these and they went so fast that I had to make another batch to go around. These are the best brownies. I will be making these for gifts. Thanks so much for sharing
