SO HOW'D IT GO?
i think the look and idea of these sound really, really delicious. i love anything pumpkin and also love "'fudgy'' brownies. ill definitely be making these in the autumn and winter months!
mmmm...these sound good. Pumpkin pie is basically my favorite food ever.
how can something be bland and overpowering at the same time?
these bars were really good when i made them.. the texture could be considered a little strange i guess.. like a very wet in the middle brownie..
some past reviews say it perfectly.. its like pumpkin pie in the middle (squishy/creamy whatever) and the top and bottom sort of form a crust..
im so sorry you dont like these.. if i had silken tofu i would make them again right now..
I hated these. The texture was disgusting and the taste was bland but yet over powering. I did double the spices though. Bummer.
OMG these are SO good.. I only made a 1/2 recipe but I used the entire amount of spice.. the double amount of spice really makes them wonderful.. yummy yummy yummy ;D
The consistency turned out great! Like a pumpkin pie-ish brownie. AWESOME! Definitely needs more spice though, I will double or triple spices next time. Thanks for the great recipe!
mine, too were cake like... but they were delicious! i recommend creaming together earth balance and a little maple syrup to spread on top of the warm bars.
Very yummy and easy to make, I found a small bar quite filling so I'll be cutting this in half next time, it made tons! Has anyone tried freezing these?
