SO HOW'D IT GO?

I followed the recipe to a T, and they're amazing!! It's crazy, how the sauce goes to the bottom. These are spoon/bowl kinda brownies. Love it, wonderfully easy recipe!

I don't really understand..I pretty much followed the recipe exactly...but these were not good! It did take about 40 minutes for them to be not soooo gooey..so they were still a little gooey (which is fine). But, they did not taste good! (not sweet enough?) I don't know what the problem was..but my husband and I did not like these. I'll probably throw them out  :(

This looks great.  I have also tried using sweet potato puree to make the brownies gooey.  It works pretty well!

I'm enjoying my first piece of brownie right now. And let me tell you...FREAKIN'  YUMMY YUM YUM!  :D They did bake up cake-like with the goo at the bottom, but that just makes these brownies worthy of being eaten with a fork.  ;) I just flipped the brownie over so the goo was on top. As far as changes the recipe goes, I used unbleached all-purpose white flour and Ghirardelli cocoa. ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC! :D

These were good :) . I used white flour because I didn't have any whole wheat pastry. Looking at the other reviews, I was careful on the cooking time - thirty minutes seemed to do it, but 25 probably would have been better. Have to be careful on these brownies because after the sugar/water/cocoa mix soaks through, there's still a little sugar/water residue on top that easily burns. Next time I might add more cocoa powder, 'cause I like super chocolatey brownies. These were more cake-like.

This didn't really thrill me.  It was better warm out of the oven, rather than the following day.  It's probably not likely that I'll be making this one again.  Honestly, I wish I hadn't wasted my cocoa and good quality natural sugars on this.

vegal, you probably should have kept with the brown sugar. This mixed with the water and cocoa turns to a gooey fudge on the bottom of the brownies when cooked, and because it starts out on top, as it soaks through it makes the brownies moist. Also, I never have applesauce and always subsitute it with vegetable oil which works really well. We make these brownies alot, and always seem to turn out amazing. Good luck on your next try.

i just baked these brownies, and i used molasses in place of the raw sugar. the brownies were HORRIBLE. i don't know what went wrong. was it the substitution of the sugar for the molasses? the brownies were chewy, but they weren't sweet, and they were terribly dense plus the top was burnt. the brownies were also rather bitter. argh. can someone tell me what could possibly have gone wrong? cus judging by the good reviews, i really want to make this recipe work.
