Recipe Notes

Do not over bake the brownies. A Minute or two extra will turn the moist brownie into dry and tasteless one. So use the stated baking time as a guide only and test the brownies a few minutes before baking time. Insert a toothpick in the centre, these brownies are done when the toothpick comes out with a little batter or moist crumbs clinging to it.
