bloomin' brilliant brownies

just tried baking these.they are sinfullly yummmmmy!!!welldone n THANK YOU!!

This recipe is just brilliantly awesome!! LOVE it! <br /> Thanks a lot Jamie :) xx<br /> Regards, from Malaysia <3

Yummy Yummy!!!

The ABSOLUTE BEST brownies I have ever made! I have made these nine times now in the last two weeks!!! Everyone loves them! Thanks Jamie!

im from NewZealand , christchurch , and i decided on day when i was craving chocolate to google brownie recipies , when i found this one i was set on making them , they were perfect and toatly and utterly delish!!!!! <br /> <br /> great find ;)

The first time i came across these was from a friend during a shared lunch. They were absolutely delicious!! The next was when i received these as a secret santa gift from the same person, my family tried them out as well and loved them. Today i happened to stumble across this recipie. My family is out right now and so i decided to give this a try.They are in the oven baking right now. Fingers crossed they turn out okay, since i have never baked anything before and this is actually my first time using the oven. I was missing a couple of ingredients which i substituted with other things i could find in the kitchen.

My favorite brownie recipe and always a winner. I made them for work today and they were declared "lush" and "the best brownies I've ever tasted". I even got propositioned on the condition that I continued making these brownies. ;-)

I love this recipe! Super easy to make. I lessened the sugar (-100g) and the butter (-50g). It was a bit runny in the middle, however, I turned the oven down to 160 deg C for another 10 minutes after the baking time specified on the recipe. After that, leave the oven door open while the brownies are still inside for about 30 minutes. Et voila! Super moist brownies (can keep for days). I suggest not chilling it though as it may become tough.<br /> Oh and that creme fraiche is a bonus!

I made them once with plain flour & no baking powder and they still came out okay. The sugar content is high, but that preserves them quite well. I once gave a piece to my boyfriend, who put the brownie into the glove compartment in the car and we found the brownie a month later and it was okay. We ate it and it was delicious, as always :-)

Amazing!!! Anyone who thinks otherwise can't have cooked them correctly because these truely are the best brownies ever! Massive hit with my children, husband, friends and family! I can always rely on my 'Jamie' cook books and recipes, good honest, yummy food never fails.

These are my go-to brownies. Love them. No equal! They are chewy, rich and super delicious! Gone in a flash, always! Brought them to parties and to my friends and they just disappear! Thank you Jamie! (and if you haven't made this yet, you reaaaaaally should!)

it was fun makin thm nd they were so yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummmy ........ they just melted in ur mouth thanks ,thnks oliver ... CHEERS !!!!!!! x

Thanks to this recipe I'm the brownie queen amog my friends! :) I've made different version using chocolate powder instead of cocoa powder or even mixing both... always a success!!! Thank you!!! Clara (Brazil)

Ive made these several times and everyone loves them!!! I dont use dark choc i use 100g of galaxy milk choc and 100g of lindt choc divine served with m&s madagascan vanilla cream xx

This was amazing! I am a hopeless cooker, who gets confused easily. But this was very simple!

These never fail to impress!!!!!!!

Our son had a project on his "favorite celebrity" to present in spanish class. He chose Jamie Oliver. (whose name we were pronouncing as Haime Ol-i-ber... trying to make it sound spanish.) We made these redonculously yummy brownies to accompany his presentation. They were a hit. Gracias Haime!

OMW!! Best Brwnies ever! I followed the comments about reduced sugar & butter and more bake time and they were perfect!! note: don't put it in the fridge if you want them to stay gooey in the centre, thankz for the recipe Jamie =)

These are such good brownies! Thanks jamie. x

my friend baked these in school and they are too die for, they are really yummy :)

i though we put the chocolate and stuff in the mizer i see that in the movie

I've made these several times and have had rave reviews everytime. The last batch I reduce the sugar to 300g and butter to 200s as suggested by others leaving comments but has anyone increased the flour quantity to 80g. I'm thinking of putting half plain and half self raising to see how it would work out. I want to make it less dense and gooey. I know this is suppose to be a gooey brownies recipe but it's a touch too gooey for me. I can't complain about the flavor though especially using Willie's 100% cocoa block... RICH!!!

these are great, add an 8th or two for best effect

We must have a dodgy oven, mine have been in for 2 hours now on and off, I used a smaller tin so pretty deep. The taste is gorgeous, but a little greasy. Think I will reducing the butter next time as others have suggested. <br />

Mr Oliver<br /> I'm one of your fans in Iran .the recipe is perfect ,Thank you

Absolutely amazing. Reduced butter and sugar quantities as suggested and cooked perfectly in 25 mins. Will be making these again...soon!

the best brownies i have ever made - and i've made a lot of brownies! but i did have to cook for 10 minutes longer and they were still fudgy and delicious :)

made these for my grandpa's funeral and everyone loved them :)

Made these Brownies last night for the first time, they are absolutely delicious. As my son has a dairy and nut allergy I made a dairy free Brownie using sunflower spread and dairy free dark chocolate and obviously no nuts! They were so good that I have just had to make another batch!!!

This is a great fool-proof recipe! They taste lovely, although I do agree on using a little less butter and sugar next time and maybe let them cook for an extra 5-10 minutes. Thank you!! :)

Made these this morning. I'm a novice cook when it comes to baking. The first time I've EVER baked anything from scratch, and I must say it was a huge success :) Reduced the amount of sugar to 300g, and the butter to 200g. Not greasy at all (with reference to other comments), but ridiculously rich tasting! Must be the dark chocolate. I used a 30cm x 12cm baking dish instead of a 25cm square pan, cos I didnt have one available. I set the temp at 160deg, after reading another comment, because I have a fan oven; and left it in for almost 30mins. Was quite gooey in the middle, but it set after a while out of the oven. A small square is just enough! I cut it into 12 instead of 20, so that's almost a double serving :O<br /> <br /> Anyway, best regards from the tiny island of Malta. You've got fans here as well, Jamie :) I love your shows and your recipes, you're my go-to chef when I want a great recipe. I make your Chicken in Milk almost once a week!! <br /> <br /> KimZe

Made these last night, they are amazingly good! I used 310g sugar and 200g of butter which was a good balance, still rather sweet but not too sickly and with a creamy rich texture. I think putting the recommended sugar and butter may be slightly too sickly, which isn't to my taste, so I decided to go for less and they are just great. <br /> <br /> I warmed up 4 large tablespoons of peanut butter and swirled on top before baking, which is very very delicious. I also put quite a few more nuts than was recommended, using honey roasted peanuts, walnuts and pecans - super tasty! <br /> <br /> I think the mix would benefit from a pinch of salt, which I would add to the flour next time.

Great Recipe - Everyone loved them :) Will do those again. <br /> I put in only 260g of Sugar as I had run out and they were still delicious and di not need any more sweetness. <br /> www.kellycoop.com

i cant WAIT 2 try this!!!!!! i hope its good!!! :) :D!!!

I've made these a few times :) i substituted dark chocolate for milk chocolate, and added extra cherries/nuts (mainly because i didn't think there were enough) i also added chunks of dark chocolate after i had mixed everything (so they did not melt into the other chocolate). i prefer this to the dark chocolate as I'm not fond of the taste :) Thank you for a great recipe!

Wooaahhh these are insanely sweet. They're brownies; they're not healthy. But from the perspective of taste, if sickly sweet isn't your thing, it might be a good idea to cut down on the sugar recommended by this recipe

These are without a doubt the best brownies ever! I have made them several times and they always turn out perfect and they are so easy to make! 1-2-3 and they go in the oven! All of you people talking about them being too slimy etc must have some lousy ovens or put the wrong heat on. And those of you who complain about the amounts of sugar and butter in the recipe, please... Stop being such hypocrites! If you don't want sugar or butter in your food, don't eat CAKE! There is no such thing as healthy cake or candy! If you otherwise lead a healthy life style you can absolutely treat yourself to these brownies once in a while without feeling guilty! I feel sorry for those who don't! They are sooo lovely with organic vanilla ice cream and strawberries, much better then stuffing your face with all that ready-made artificial bull**** you can buy at the super market! Xx, Maria from the Faroe Islands

I tried this recipe and wow..super delicious. I put it in the oven for 30 minutes, just good enough :) My mates and I are super impress. Now it's time to master this to perfection and present it to my future in laws :)<br />

I have just made 5 trays of this brownie to feed 60 campers in South France! All have come out looking very tasty! I had to give some good elbow grease to give the 'silky' texture to the mix before putting it in the trays. Serving it with Creme Fraiche tomorrow...yummy!

I make these all the time and actually cook them for less time at a lower temperature, I use a fan oven and silicone tray, and I always get great results with people commenting that they are the best brownies they have ever tatsed, so I guess it's down to personal opinion about what you want from a brownie. They are very rich so you only need a small portion mind you.

To all those saying they cooked and cooked these and they were still gooey in the middle.... Do you guys not read the instructions?? <br /> It says you are NOT looking for the skewer to come out clean! These have to cool and set. Try putting in the fridge and serve cooled. They are SO chewy and delicious and very yummy!! :)

Just made them... I'm in Chile so I had to adjust the ingredients a bit though... replaced the dried cherries by raisins and got whatever chocolate I could find here.... however.... YUM!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU JAMIE!!!!!

yum! i made these GLUTEN FREE and they turned out perfect! i cooked them for a little bit longer and substituted the flour for gluten free flour mix. So delicious with home made ice cream on a winters night!

I cooked them 10 minutes longer in a fan oven at 160c. They were still very gooey in the middle but have set nicely now although still gooey. Amazing though. But definately a dessert and not an afternoon cake. Best eaten with a spoon!

These brownies aree AMAZIING! I make them as often as i can, my brother is always moaning at me - When are you gonna make brownies, when are you gonna make brownies. My freinds love it to!

i will try your recipie im only 14 and am in year nine and i do a hospitality collage course in high school and im cooking tomorrow and ill let you know how they turn out sian stoke on trent xx thx jamie u are a cooking inspiration for me xx

yummo!!!!!! easy peasy; left a bit of the butter and sugar out; and still taste amaziiiiing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />

best brownies i have ever made...thanks jamie...awesome <3<br />

One word. Gorgeous. I've been looking for a great brownie recipe for ages in cook books then finally thought to look on the internet and found these. They cooked perfect and looked exactly like the picture you've displayed (but without the nuts and the cherries because i'm allergic) i've taken some for my nan and granddad and some for my little brother and sister and mum and stepdad and they all think that they are gorgeous. They even want the recipe. Thanks for putting it on the internet.

I made these brownies today and they are heavenly! The only thing I would say is that they are very greasy. 250g of butter is a LOT when you compare other brownie recipes and the mixture was more greasy than silky before it went into the oven. I will try them again but next time I think I will reduce the butter down to 180g butter and see how they turn out. Saying that, they were still delicious.

Jamies recipes are usually great this was awful didn't cook at all I left it in four over an hour & still too slimy in the middle real shame as it was my pud for friends after a lovely meal!

really really pleased with how these turned out left them for 5mins longer than stated and still a bit gooey but i like it like that...hadn't yet found a brownie recipe i like until this i may stop looking :)

I've been making these brownies for years, all my friends and family are amazed at how amazing they are. I have a piece of advise for the users of this recipe... don't be scared of how raw the mixture is when you take it out if the oven, just leave it too cool and it will set in a heavenly dessert. I alway find that brownies mature like a fine wine, they alway taste better the day after you bake them.... Although it is hard to improve perfection!!! I hope this helps my fellow bakers to make "blooming brilliant brownies"<br /> Kaye in Sheffield

i made these brownies with my grandma and i think that they're best chocolate brownie recipe i know because all the other recipes make the brownies to hard in the middle but this was just right. thanks jamiee :)

Hi, your brownie recipe was not very satisfying ! You told me to put 360g of caster sugar in and they took forever to cook and are really sickly ! however because me and my friend Jade cooked you brownies in class the whole class wanted them and we had to pretend that they were not cooked properly ...THEY WERENT !!!!!!!!!!! i did enjoy the brownies in extremely small portions .. i do not recomend them for a proper desert. i wouldbe enormously greatful if you would be willing to visit my school (CHRIST COLLEGE, cheltenham, arle road,GL51 8LE ,) and sort our school lunches out ! we need your help - my teacher made me cook her tea the other day-- as she was too lazy to do it herself. im sorry i dissed your brownie recipe i just thought it would help if i gave you my opinion. :) email me back if possible , Thankyou <br /> <br /> Kirsty Rich <br /> x

Absolute stupidity & suicide to put this much saturated fat & sugar in any recipie. Had to tip at leat half of the butter out half way through cooking that was floating all over the top.

yumyumyum these are the most amazing brownies thx jamie! <br /> Finn (Australia)

My son did this recipe for a school cookery lesson about 2 years ago and they so tasty I've been making them every since, they always turn out yummy, however they always need cooking for slighty longer than specified. I have taken them into work several times and taken to friends when it's our turn to bring a pudding, I always get asked for the recipe. My daughter even cooked them at Uni and everyone said how yummy they were!!they taste good cold or warmed up with cream or ice cream. They don't last long in our house that's for sure.

wow they were amazing! but the middle was very raw! i ended up leaving it to burn on the outside so that it was perfect in the middle and man it was perfect!!

Not good - far too greasy.... I followed the recipe to the 't' - possibly would be alright with ice cream but not suitable for having with a cup of tea.<br />

Two firsts for me this morning. I used a silicone baking tray, the size this recipe called for, and I made brownies for the first time. I took heed of the comment about not over-cooking the brownies, but still left them in 10 mins longer than recommended. The outside cooked and the middle and bottom were 'raw' brownie mixture. Do these silicone trays need different cooking times? or am I the only person EVER (according to this list!) who's attempts turned out disappointingly?? Advice would be gratefully received! <3 Cheers<br />

This is the best recipe ever. Similar to other comments I left out the cherries and nuts (due to allergies) and added milk and white chocolate pieces to make it a triple chocolate brownie. I am now infamous amongst friends and colleagues for my (I haven't fessed up where it's come from) brownies<br />

I just found it to be too cakey and not moist of chewy at all. I ended up making an icing sugar glaze to seep in. That made it brilliant!

Followed this recipe to the exact instructions and the mixture curdled and turned out very very greasy - why?

i just baked theese and they turned out very gooy but eatable. it's very nice and tasty although it doesn't hold it's shape well

These are the best brownies i've ever had! Made them minus nuts and cherries and used crushed oeros the results were amazing! A big fav with all the family :)

These are seriously the best brownies EVER. Forget the cherries or the nuts though. Just plain, and they stay moist, even uncovered, for days and days. They take minutes and they are AMAZING. THANX JAMIE :)

It was AMAZING!!!!! <br /> The scrummiest brownies ever!! I left out the cherries and orange zest and added White chocolate pieces. I am now a local hero in my office!!! THANKS JAMIE!!!!

They are "BLOOMING BRILLIANT" Made them last year for the first time, and I will never need another brownie recipe again... Lush!!! I used Belgian cocoa very rich and dark.

ITs flpn awesome NIce, i just keep failing in it. luckly i couldve saved a few pieces to give to my gf, tanx jamie. with you could reply to give some help.

Try no:1 epic fail :(<br /> lets go for try No 2

Just used this recipe and it is delicious :)

Just about to make these with milk and white chocolate chips, and serve with cornish ice cream!! Sounds a bit calorie city but its a holiday treat!!! Will let you know how they turn out!!!

im a chef, and these brownies seems to be brilliant, havnt tried them, but gonna make them to moro, to show my girl what proper brownies are. never brownies before, but i had great sucsess in the past with jamies recipess. gonna make them to moro, will let you know how it went<br />

Very delicious. Most chocolaty and moist brownies ever. I usually put half of them cutted into pieces in the freezer. Like that, they make an excellente "reserve" dessert. Thanks for this great recipe.

It's easy peasy with a mega result. Jamie, you rule (so say my boys). Love from Holland, where the Jamie Mag just launched last week.

Any1 no how many calories these have???

total incredible <br /> made with my mum & we both love um 2 bitts<br /> THANK U jamiexxx

i hope mine turn out ok gunna make them for pudding tonite wish me luck <br />

I need a conversion to Canadian measurements -Cups. Are all these grams weighed?<br />

i am so rubbish at making cakes, but these turned out absolutely perfect, i followed the recipe exactly except i used gluten free flour. 25 mins on 160 in a fan oven, perfecto. So so moist and chocolatey, you would never know they were gluten free, served with the creme fraiche , slurp!

omg they are the most, gooeyest, nicest, chocoletest brownies EVER!!!!!!! how did u ever come up with this recipe?! HOW I TELL YOU!!!

made these with chocolate from the pile of Easter eggs we had. left the chocolate broken up, no nuts or cherries. Left in the oven for a bit longer than 20 mins. But still perfect. Made with Gluten Free flour too and my husband loved them as well. Bought a bar of chocolate just to make them again whilst cooking the Sunday roast. Lush!

Absolutely LOVED them, sooo easy to make, i had them in my lunch for work, i made them for many different parties and everyone loved them every time!! Nothing could be more Gorgeous. xx

Make them again and again, perfect...only about 20 mins in the oven and i leave to fully cool so as they dont break up. My oven would kill them if i left them any longer. Loved by the kids and grown ups and very easy!

These were only OK, and what was with the amount of sugar???? I reduced it to 200 grams and it was *plenty* They were grand, like, but I wouldn't be bothered making them again - not for that amount of calories!

i just made these and they are unbelievably good. Used a 50% cocoa solid chocolate and added the option of macadamia nuts. It took about 40 mins to cook in my oven. Very tasty brownies for such little effort.

Brilliant just added white choc instead of cherries. Gives a nice contrast. Yum!

Less buttr, more choc! Really tasty! Baked for 45 mins an still very runny in the middle, super sickly in a good way! Have warm wi vanilla ice cream.

they didn't come out as I expected, I think there are too much sugar and too much butter as well..my chocolate cake is better :-))

Soooo delicious!!!!!! I love brownies!!!! And such an easy recipe!!!!! Thank you!!!!!

Myla, I hate to say it but what were you doing trying out a recipe for the very first time on important guests using expensive ingredients? Cookery rule 1: when it really matters, do something tried and tested.

I love brownies and I thought id try these ones as I heard they were delicious from a friend of mine! ...... the best brownies ever !!!

I love brownies and was very excited to make these but unfortunately, not sure what happened (I followed the recipe to the T), they turned out extremely yucky (greasy, uncooked. I put them back in the oven and they turned even more greasy!) in the middle and just about edible at the edges. I'm so disappointed I was making them for important guests and had used very expensive ingredients. I love your other recipes Jamie, but I'm sorry I won't be using this particular one again.

Although these brownies were slightly undercooked when baked for25 minutes, they were very delicious!! absolutely loved them

one word to describe the chocolate brownies AMAMZING

These brownies turned out really really well - best ive made so far. My only point is that they took around 40 minutes in the oven, rather than the 25 stated in the recipe. I do think i might try and reduce the butter - only slightly though! But they were delicious and by far the best recipe ive tried in ages, will definitely be making again for sure. I love that there isnt that much flour required, i think that this is the magic trick here!

The time given was too little, i gave them a go and they turned out too gooey and more like undercooked chocolate cake with 5 minutes extra in the oven, very sickly and not brownie like, disappointed with the results

o god these things are epic!!!!!!!!!! i'm in love all over again!!!!! thank j

Yummii yumiii, perfect recipee :) love it!! Thanx Jamiee

Best brownie recipe ever!<br /> Always loved brownies, nvr found a recipe that turns out right (either rock hard or too gooey) these r just perfect. Just made a bit of mess cause my baking tray was too shallow!

I can't even begin to explain how amazing these are! They've become a fortnightly ritual if not a weekend 'fix' to sooth a chocolate sensation craving. They are gone in absolutley no time (passed out to family and friends)! Becuase they are firm on the outside, and goey on the inside, even non chocolate lovers cave in when they taste the smooth, rich and oh so fabulous god send texture. I cut them into tiny 1inch squares and becuase they are so rich, you'll want to devour them very slowly...<br /> <br /> Some tips: Don't use the full amount of sugar, i personally used 300grams. I divide the mixture into three loaf tins (handy when you don't have a large brownie tin), which means you can experiment with different favlours. The last batch i made, i added the jucie and zest from 1 whole orange to one loaf tin portion and it was even better than the orginal. Have yet to try adding bananas!<br /> <br /> P.S. Thanks for posting the gluten free version - I was on the hunt for a gluten free recipe a while back and could not find one!

Just about to make 40 for my little cousins party tomorrow :) they better be good, he may be 5 but he is a tough little Critic :D will let you know if all goes well.

I made 3 batches of this at Christmas and divided it up and gave as gifts for friends - it went down a storm! I am now making it again for my mum for mothers day as she said it was the scrumiest cake I'd given her (and I bake a lot!) and she complained that she didn't have enough at Christmas! I leave out the sour cherries as when I've used them in other recipes they don't generally go down that well. Well done Jamie

just about to make these!

Absolutely brilliant! These have become my failsafe recipe that I use if I need to whip up something sweet quickly.

I've just made these and WOW - they are amazing! I altered the recipe to make 15 instead of 20; and didn't have enough caster sugar in the cupboard, so substituted 1/4 of the quantity of caster sugar with soft brown sugar. They're delicious! Will definitely use this recipe again.

I can't eat dairy and my sister doesn't eat gluten... so it's difficult to find good recipies that can be substituted to fit both our requirements, but these ones worked out brilliantly!!<br /> <br /> I used 100g of gluten free flour instead on plain (as gluten free flour isn't as dense) , 150g packet of sweet william dairy free/gluten free chocolate chips- instead of the dark cooking chocolate, a dairy free margarine instead of butter and also 100g of coco instead of 80 (to make up for not being able to use dark chocolate)...<br /> <br /> They were delicious! i cooked them for just over 20 minutes instead of 25.. they came out chocolaty, chewy crust and moist inside! you would never know that they were gluten and dairy free :)

Extremely delicious! I left out the cherries and nuts (the dried cherries are hard to come by in the Netherlands), but put in the orange zest instead. Chocolate + orange = heaven!

brilliant! very easy to make and the taste is amazing!

It was absolutely delicious! <br /> Thank you for such amazing recipe!

Just made these as a valentines treat and they came out perfect, I used banana instead of cherries and only used 125g of butter. They are quite sweet so may use less sugar next time :)

Brownies In The Oven :P

I just discovered these and what can I say except AMAZING, so simple and quick to make, I subbed the cherries and nuts for a mix of dark, milk and white chocolate oh yeah and had some for brekkie, thank you Jamie

Absolutely THE BEST delicious, thankyou Jamie.

This recipe is AMAZING thanks Jamie

is it me or did these brownies taste like Dumbledores beard? MAGICAL!!!

....how yummy are these things......the right delight for a cold and snowy Sunday! Thanks, Jamie!

Followed the recipe quantities exactly and these were indeed bloomin brilliant!! Very easy to make and hard to get wrong. Didn't have the right size tin so used a couple of oblong bread tins and sliced the brownies vertically like bread. Worked fine. 10/10 at the school fair!

hey babes, nom nom nom nom nom nom... I love these brownies, not as much as you ;)

so good........


they came out amazing

xxxx

i made these browniess:) omg beautiful,the tasted amazinggg ! im making everyone some for eid:D dont doubt this recipiee for a second,even though itss got soooo many caloriess in LOOL :P
jamieee's a ledgee ! xxx

I have just made these brownies and they are better than any I have made before and a zillion times better than any shop bought. Perfectly squidgy and perfectly rich and chocolatey. Thank god I am home alone with my brownies ;-)

wauw ymmy yummy this looks so wonderfull, i think that i know what my dreams are about tonight.
you can steal every womans heart with this chocolat recipes.

My favorite recipes !! :))
Always cook this. !! ;DD
Amazing recipe. ;)

I dont know if i just did something wrong but from my baking experience the ratio of flour and castor sugar is wrong. why would u only put 65g of flour in and the tons of castor sugar-360g??? Hu this doesn't make sense and it ended up being boiled sugar and an utter flop. i bake often and i think the ratio is wrong. anyone else have this experience or can clarify this for me???

Looking at all the raving reviews this must be a recipe worth trying. However looking at the ingredients there seems to be a lot of butter in these brownies. Would reducing the butter to around 170g make a huge impact in them because I've been looking at many other recipe's and some of them use around 150-200g of butter.

Dear Jamie;

We appreciate the opportunity you provided to have a good flour fight. Ronan won. He thinks.
WE swapped any optional ingredients for chocolate. It worked out very well!....and who needs baking powder when you can have MORE CHOCOLATE!!

Thanks for the recipe, it was nearly as good as ours(!)

Mange tu.

Maeve and Ronan oxo

To foodislikelove.... yeh I agree... J is far fitter the Gordon Ramsay.... lol x

I had to make another batch cause the first ones got eaten so fast..... Jamie you make things so easy for me to follow, and I am loving learning using new ingredients, I get excited walking around the supermarket looking for new ingredients (instead of getting stressed like I used too)... I even added a few bits of my own in the second batch... Whole hazlenuts and a few raisens... yum yum !!!! thanks J x

All my previous attempts at making brownies have been utter flops. This one?? super awesome! it's so melt in your mouth and my mother who normally doesn't like chocolate can't stop eating it! Thank you very much for this recipe!

Marvelous! so fantastic recipe. thank you very much and i alway make it.however last week i try to add orange zest to bake together. still very delicious

you are the best brownie maker ever i made some for my mum and she said it was a mouthwatering heaven
thanxs

I have made these countless times now, I am a Uni student and make them for my flatmates *or just my twin sister and I* all the time, they ALWAYS go down a treat, but we're not too keen on nuts so i add milk chocolate and white chocolate about ten minutes before they're done, oh they are DELICIOUS!!! JAMIE EXCELLENT RECIPE, WE LOVE U BTW!!!

-MUCH FITTER THAN GORDON RAMSAY

mwah

these yummy treats are amazing and easy to make and that if you make them right everyone will like them !!

It was my first time making chocolate brownie, my colleagues loved it, specially the nuts one. I think it's a bit too rich for me, I will reduce the butter next time.
But it's a briliant and simple recipe. Thank you Jamie.

I made these, their amazing!

I was nearly put off making these from just 2 negative comments, I think they are just sour grapes as everyone else says these are great and I trust Jamie over everything. Anyway, my 13yr old pleaded with me to make some brownies so I made them today. Added nuts but omitted the orange zest and creme fraiche. Had a panic attack when I added the eggs as they just seemed to make the mixure go eggy. But a bit of heavy handed stirring and the mixture turned into gorgeous dark gloopy chocolate. Cooked them for just under 25 mins, 23 to be precise and got the most incredible brownies. Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. My son says they are the best brownies he has ever tasted and he should know as he orders brownies whenever we go out for dinner. So if you are thinking about it, don't think anymore....just do it. You will NOT be disappointed. Remember....use butter and NOT marg xx

I have neva made these but they look yummy i am gonna try them xxxx thnx jamie

I made these last week, my boyfriend has not stopped begging me to make more ever since!! He's getting fat though...

These brownies are excellent. Those of you who think they were horrible obviously can't cook properly. I have cooked these for family and work collegues a few times before and they went down a treat. I have been asked to make them again on several occasions.

I would suggest this recipe to everyone. They are so yummy!!!

Not a very good recipe. Reduce the butter by at least 25g and you might end up with something edible.

duno these wer rubbish i cooked um right ubt dey didnt work duuh

haaaaapin m88
theese brownies are ok (:
love ya xx

omg i made these d uther day and they were absolutly horrid i think i may be cookin them rong i got them out they were uncooked and wen i tasted them u had taste of choc for 1 sec n then the rest of the taste was utter mank hellp!!!!! if u think u no wat i am doin rong comment send me a msg on my utube channel i am called tw1lightxoxo
thnx!!!!!!!!!!

I was asked to bring cakes to the Sunday friendly cricket match and decided to give these brownies a go. I skipped the cherries and the nuts, but used some white chocolate instead. My team and the other loved these, so I told them to get the recipe on the Jamie website. Thanks for a great and simple brownie recipe!

Kelly, Maldon Ladies Cricket

i made the brownies for my birthday party this year - they were soooo delicious and everybody wanted to have the receipe :-)

greetings from vienna

tus brownies son fabulosos , como todo lo q tu haces, eres el mejor¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

ive made these a few times and they are lush! i dont use nuts and stuff but ive put white chocolate buttons on top before and that was quite cool... i needed slightly more than 25 mins tho! well sorth the wait, thanks jamie! x

I used this recipe to make brownies. Followed it to the "T" and it took an hour to bake in the oven. Don't know what happened there but I won't be using this recipe again in a hurry!

These Brownies are really amazing. Even my friends think so.
One of them said these brownies are the best he has ever ate.

These are just delicious! And now I have a regular demand from friends and family to bake more brownies for them! (And this is amazing considering I'm a uni student who knows nothing about real cooking!!) Yum yummmm =)

These are the most extraordinary brownies. I made these for a hen party only last weekend and by Monday morning my inbox was clogged with requests for the recipe. One girl could barely wait 24 hours for the reply and sent me a text to remind me to forward the recipe. Beware, these brownies will make people do desperate things!

I just made these, and I am not good in the kitchen, but they were AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

Oh My God, what a recipe, it is delicioussssssss.
Highly recommend, all you do is bung everything in a it comes out LUSH!!
GO ON MAKE IT NOWWWWW
YOU'LL BE MISSING OUT.

im goining to try to bake these laugh out loud !

these sounds lush! can't wait to try these..... :D

I've tried this and it's so yummy and easy..I mixed dark chocolate and milk chocolate and reduced the sugar a bit, so the taste is not too sweet. Thank you Jamie..

I made these a few years ago (using cherries and nuts) at school when doing a project on Jamie for Food Technology. They were amazing and I got full marks! Very easy to make, I managed on my own and I would have been about 12. Will definately make these every time i want brownies! Thank you Jamie.

Made these today, followed the recipe to the letter (without any of the optional extras) and they came out absolutely perfect. Can't wait for the family to try them tomorrow. Thx Jamie, you're a star, I'll be making these again!!

Wooooowww! :-) They were soooo YUMMMYYY thankyou so much 4 such a nice recipe.!

I love these brownies but they never come out the same twice. I have tried to vary the receipe so that they aren't so gooey reducing butter, increasing flour less eggs HELP I just wan't to get them right why am I finding it so difficult? We love them anyway, if they are too soft we eat them with ice cream but I would like to cut them rather than spoon them:)

Thank-you, these are great! Ive never been any good at baking with chocolate, but I tried these brownies and they look and taste wonderful! I didn't use cherries or nuts and was worried it wouldn't taste very nice without them, but it tasted gorgeous!

the best! the most amazing brownies I've ever tried! me and my mates love them!

Wow im gonna be making these tuesday and by the sounds of it they're sooo nice!
I only have an hour is that long enough?
Please make my day and tell me!
Xx

Awesome recipe- although I find that if you reduce the butter quantity to around 150g it works equally well. Still tastes amazing- yet less fat!
Theyre really good with white chocolate and cherries too =]

Just made a batch using dark Terry's Chocolate Orange for a twist and without the cherrys, delicious of course, thanks for an excellent recipe!

Excellent brownies - easy to make and a hit with everyone! I like that they are not overly sweet but with a deep chocolatey flavor.

i want to make these. but i am in the U.S. and need help converting. can anyone help me? email me if you would like to make my day! rbnee4@aol.com thank you!

I'll try them right now .wait i'll tell the news .Oops there atr no cherries in this season I'll add cherry jam hope it will work
thanks

I used to make awful brownies and made everyone around me try them for years and years until these...I've been making Jamie's brownies for the last 2 years now and I have become a famous for them! I won over my boyfriend and his whole family with them and now my mum's asked me to make them to help her win over her in laws' family that are coming over for tea tomorrow! these brownies' reputation preceeds themselves - give it a go - you won't regret it!

couple of hints - bourneville dark chocolate and chocolate powder works best. I also like a little less sugar 350g instead of 360g and don't bother using cherries - walnuts alone are yummy yummy yummy!!!!!

anywhich way you do it - it'll come out bloomin brilliant no doubt - this is the easiest and best recipe I've come across!

Hi,

I am just making these brownies.... they smell delicious, and the mixture tasted pretty good! Did anyone have to cook them for longer than the 25 mins? Top is still squidgy!

Thanks

these are so nice!!
seriously anyone reading this shouldmake them . thanka jamie .

I thought I had the best brownie recipe ever until I made these! They are SO good! And for once the actually looked like the picture above! My mum bought me more ingredients without me even asking...I think that's a hint! Cheers Jamie!

In reply to Laure:

I have made this recipe several times and would advise against using just milk chocolate as I tried this (with Dairy Milk) when I didn't have anything else and it really did not work. The best combination I think is half milk chocolate and half dark chocolate, this is the perfect balance. It doesn't taste too dark, but works a lot better than with purely milk chocolate.

I'd like to add that this is a really gorgeous recipe and it always turns out well (apart from when using just milk choc...) Delicious.

Gosh! You never disappointed me! I had four boys hungry for an afternoon tea. My boys and his friends asked brownies, and I had no clue how to do it. This recipe is tasty even when it is not cooked! The scent plus the consistency... That is my favorite for playdate with schoolmates because I cook and kids enjoyed! Thank you again!

Yum!!!
Try these- easy to make and taste gorgeous.
Don't put cherries in though, walnuts are better! :)

Best brownies ever! it's like tastebud heaven haha :D

Made these a couple of weeks ago, both my OH and colleagues adored them. OH keeps nagging to make more, so thats the plan for my afternoon today! I left out the cherries and added peanuts - nuts in general would go great with these! x

Wow!!! MMMM it look delicious! Alguien sabe si esta esta receta en español? me encantaría hacerla porque tiene una pinta increible, seguro que esta fabuloso!!!

Jamie you are the best!

I added dessicated coconut to this recipe and it was ruddy gorgeous! My workmates are thrilled and keep on at me to make more! Keep 'em coming Jamie!

me and my four year old daughter made these brownies this morning and i have to say they were a major success! my little girl has said she is going to tell all her friends at school that her mummy makes the best brownies in the world! thanks jamie :)
lots of love
nicci and hollie xxx

This recipe is brilliant..just a bit chewy on the outside and melty and gooey in the middle! Also nice if you put in broken up white chocolate buttons and chocolate chips...instead of nuts and cherries...yum!

I don't like dark chocolate. Do they taste of dark chocolate, should I use milk chocolate instead?

These brownies made me feel like this -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4 !!!!!!

Jamie did it again.

these are yummmmmyyy! im going to ask the head teacher if we can bake them at my primary school in cooking class. i know my friend's will like them. the cherrys give a really nice fruity taste. ummmm

These are much loved by my family and friends. and are delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream.

Wow! would you look at that! That is so awesome! Thanks for the recipe Jamie! - www.foodista.com

The picture looks yummy,
but god almighty do they taste good in real life !!!!!!!!!

well done Jamie

These are to DIE for.

Thanks for the recipies.

Much love

When cooking delicious brownies like these it is no wonder your tongue is too big for your mouth!

Much love,

Gordon x

Just GREAT! Easy to cook and so delicious.
Jamie, thank you very much!

Cheers from Russia

Really lovely brownies, thanks for the wonderful recipe

best i have ever had
i am 12 and it was easy to follow the instructions.
thank you very much jamie
you have got me cooking thank you!!!

After much research, this is my fave brownie recipe.

I do these diary-free with 175-200g soya-based spread (always reduce fat quantity for non-dairy alternatives to butter - I don't know why). I also use about 10-20g more cocoa, and generally decrease the sugar by at least 50g because I like more chocolate and less sweet in my brownie.

Wicked left a day or two. Seriously - make them in advance in secret then hide them from your household under lock and key so they can be eaten matured.

the best brownies ever! god bless jamie!

These are absolutely amazing!YUMMY SCRUMMY! They are one of the best brownies i have ever tasted! ROCK ON JAMIE! thanks :D

absoloutely horible recipe disgusting worst ever brownies

These brownies are off the charts. Subtituted unsalted butter with Cannabutter. Worked even better. Highly reccomended. Cheers Jamie

lol rofl wow
these are amazing i make them every week but i use chopped hazzelnuts instead of nuts there great try hazzlenuts they go really good

Thank you for a great brownie recipe!!! They were a bloody good job!!! And the kids also enjoyed making them (and eating them)LOL. Thanx

just perfect, Jamie's recipes turn up to be perfect every single time. Greetings from Norway.

These brownies are to die for! I'm just starting to cook, and as a beginner they turned out great! Everybody loved them but all the credit goes to Jamie of course. I love you!

These taste much better when topped with chef's special sauce - very festive - just like a smattering of snow!

made these last night and im pleased to say we're all still alive and well...ille be making these again!

Thanks for the recipe..Its super easy to make.
I got a shock to see the gooeyness and continue baking for another 10 mins..
and now setting it to dry..
Have yet to try..Smells good though

I've just made brownies for the first time ever and I used this recipe. My brownies got rave reviews, thank you very much Jamie Oliver!

simply works perfectly!

I made sweet brownie love to mine last night, american pie stylee.
Was amazing.

Theyre good lovers, Jamie you genius mate.

After reading the comment for this recipe I cant wait to have a go at it for when the family come round over the Christmas holidays,

cheers Jamie

i love these things, they make me orgasm in my fanny. mmmmmm sexy brownies, blackkk as the night!

thank you sooooooooooooooooo much jamie oliver ;)
love francesca xoxo

i am really busy today so i cannot go out and some well needed chocolate can i still make the brownies ? i have a party s.o.s the cake may not be delivered from the bakery please help

kl how.............................................. ausome....................?

I have made and made these, even for my wedding cake on Saturday!!! absolutely delicious. Have included cherries or left them out, makes no diff, either way they are fantastic and a doddle, I melt the butter and chocolate in oven and chuck all rest in. cook slightly cooler oven otherwise edges do before the rest. enjoy

I have now made these several times over and god they are good!! I have made my variation though as I have not been able to get hold of baking powder,so have used just self raising instead. I have always omitted the cherries and nuts...only because again I didn't have them, but have used 100gms of the lindt orange choc and 100gm of the 85% choc, with added orange zest and juice they are sublime.
Thank you so much Jamie, what you are doing is absolutely fantastic, you are an inspiration not only to Britain but to all those expats who can pass it on to all their "new" countries.

These brownies look propa scrummy!! I might have to make 'em one day, hehe.

WOW, these REALLY are brilliant brownies.
I made them yesterday, it's like a little piece of heaven is melting on your tounge.
Love it11

Just a heads up........ we absolutely love you in south africa!!! you almost have a cult following. mwwwwwwwwwwwwah! big kiss for this decadent piece of heaven. Shout out to all yal from durbs!

I've made these twice for birthdays. I now get them demanded. I'm off to make some now!

just finnished making my second batch for our local scout group, so easy to make , hope they go down well . if they dont want them my hubby will

ur brownies look veryy Gooooddd

Hello, I'm Only 13 and i have made these about 3-4 times, im making them again soon, mine didnt fit 20 people though. i first didt these at school

they are very nice.

:D

Does anyone know if i should lift the bowl which is on top of th simmering water AFTER th mixture is smooth and then add th dry mixture. OR after th mixture is smooth, do not lift it up and continue to add in th dry mixture?

It was so easy! 15min! Wauw, but don't make it to often, it's not so healthy;)

these brownies look great i havnt tried them out yet but i will!! i love cooking and all my family loves the desserts i make im going to try this one out and i'll tell you what they think!!

I made these on Sunday and I'm surprised that 3 days later I still have any later. I used milk chocolate instead of dark and it still tasted yummy. Thanks Jamie for a great recipe.

This brownie it's just delicious, and now it's famous in my family, everybody just loves when I make it!
Thanks for this great recipe!

Renata (Brazil)

Brilliant Brownies I brought these to a girls weekend and they were hoovered!!! best brownies i have ever eaten and easy to make.

yummy yum tac

these brownies killed me children

these brownies are properly class

the first brownies i've ever made and they were a storming success .... thanks jamie. i've zoomed up in my boys' estimation! xx

Your recipes are great! I have seen some of your shows in India but they never are shown on a regular basis. I would love to have measurements in cups/ tablespoons and teaspoons though, specially for baking- for the brownies above.

these brownies really really delicious, amazing recipes!! thank you so much.

These are the best ever!
I do mine with walnuts, and they tend to disappear quite quickly :)

Thanks for an amazing recipe,

Mafalda (Portugal)

It is the most perfect brownies I have ever tasted and soooo easy to make. Irresistible. I am now afraid that I will bake it every Friday...and that the whole family will gain several stone in just a few weeks...

hey Jamie,

I replaced cherries with pitted prunes and its went out really well. Thanks a lot for a really really simple brownies recipe. now.......for some addtional enhancers....

Raisins, not so good, more white chocolate, better, just substitute raisins for white chocolate, it's much nicer.

I have an elderly friend called Jade who love’s your recipes, if you wander outside into the back garden you can often smell the new concoction she’s baking, emanating from her back passage, the smell of an oven full of brownies is constantly present in our area, she’s well know for it, I shall print out this recipe and give it to her, she’s a lovely old dear, hopefully I will be able to report back on the results, or at least the resulting aroma.

taste and felt like poo in my mouth

absolutely love this recipe!!!

i use dried blueberries and macadamia nuts, and i haven't ever had a complaint. they go like there is no tomorrow... dried strawberries also go alright!! thanx jamie!!

hayden :)

excellent recipe!!! very easy to make!! delicious flavor!! everybody who tasted them had loved them!!
thank you Jamie!!!!!

Thank you so much for this recipe
Ive never been that good with cooking but i just made these and the family loved them!

These were fantastic i took some into work and everyone loved them!!..They were very easy to make and im going to make some again this weekend!..Thanks Jamie!

These brownies rocked, they didn't last long in our house of 6 people! Very tasty and gooey, can highly recommend them!

I like the fact that they are so quick and easy to put together. My first time baking brownies and success, my kids love them, in fact I baked some today and I am still being nagged for "some more please mom". Thank you Jamie.

Being an American, I'm not sure how to deal with the grams aspect of your recipes. Is there a table to how measurements more comfortable to an American cook?

I made these after eating at a friend's house, they were lovely. I use a fan oven and reduced temp to 165, wonder if I should have cooked them at 180 as per recipe. A bit goey to start, but great once cool, I even froze them

i replaced the cherries with grated carot and the crem fraiche with fromage blanc, try it!!....could you come over to France and sort out school dinners????

I tried to make brownies for the first time today. It was an amazed experience. And those brownies are the best I've ever had. Even my flat mates are crazy about it. Though I can't find dry cherries in the supermarket, it tastes perfect still. Next time, I’ll try the one with dried cherries~ thank you~

These are the best brownies I've ever had. I got the recipe from the book and, after so many other recipes I finally got the brownies the way I wanted them. I just add some walnuts and they are the best brownies ever. With a scoop of plain vanilla ice cream as a dessert or with a big glass of milk as a snack and they are sensational!

bad tasting but gonna use them again

These sound great i'm going to use them for my food tech class TY JAMIE OLIVER

Jamie, I just love checking out your new recipes, you have a knack for making everything fun and exciting!! Only one problem...I love recipes and to make a copy of them. But, when I try to make a copy, one recipe took 9 pages!!! Would you please consider making a printable version, as we do on web sites in the United States??? I just love anything British, and adore you ever so much!! Wishing you continued success in all that you do, and happiness with your family!!!!

GORGEOUS!

Hey Jamie

Your brownies are amazing and they’re one of my favorite recipes and just wanted to say thankyou. I hope you keep making amazing recipes I would give them 9 ½ out of 10 that means they so beautiful

Yours truly, Emma

I cook these all the time only without the grapes and walnuts and i drizzle melted chocolate on the top its fab!!

A colleague brought these for one of the cake-Thursdays we do at work, and they are deeee-lish! I had 2 big pieces, and stuck another in my bag for later, before asking for the recipe! Definitely what I would call a success!

Hi Jamie!

Brownies are a kind of an addiction to me as well as cheesecakes. I tried many many recipes of brownie, however yours is the best one of my appetite!

Thanks for sharing it!

Best wishes from Istanbul

i tried this resipe for a school project i didnt use nuts cause of alergies and used snakes insted of cherrys they work out a hit everyone in my class had one. my teacher even asked for recipe.

these were great and all my family loved them ! thank you jamie !!!

There are so many recipes out there for brownies- (don't try them) this one is the BEST! Guaranteed to delight at dinner parties, just the right balance of chocolaty gooeyness. Mmmm.

The best brownies I have ever made. This brownie recipe is going to be THE brownie recipe from now on. unbelievably good i even had two 18 year old boys licking up the crumbs from the box they were in!! Thank you!

The name of the recipe is right... BRILLIANT!
Thank you very much, these are d e l i c i o u s

crap brownies

uh

i made these and they came out really dry. i used a 9x13" pan and only baked them for about 20 minutes.

I live in South Africa. Have made this recipe 100 times with all the variations and it is a hit everytime. Never flopped and loved by all. My friends r always asking me to make them for any occasion. Thank you!!!! :)

cnt wait to make em now yum!

Best brownies I've ever eaten...I bake them for Father's Day today, and I have to say: great recipe!!!
Thank you very much, Jamie

Hi Jamie,

I tried out your recipe for my first ever brownies for Christmas Eve dinner with the family and they LOVED it!! They were truly impressed that this was my first attempt at making brownies.

Your recipes are thorough and easy to follow with useful tips! Thanks Jamie!!

However, as I'm a bit weight conscious I used less butter...abt 150-200g will do.

I made these with dairy free butter substitute and dairy free chocolate to accommodate my guests and added chopped hazelnuts to them.

I served them for desert with fresh strawberries after a heavy casserole….they were amazing. One of my guests said I was a ‘phenomenal cook’….I did confess it was a Jamie Oliver recipe.

This will be a stable recipe in my portfolio. Fabulous!!

i've just made them and although they turned out great, I think the recipe asks for way too much sugar and butter. You can definetely lower those two :)

question: what types of nuts is it best to use? and is it necessary to put that much butter and sugar in the recipie?

i used this recipe for my food tech project and they worked every time, yummy! ^^

These brownies are mouth watering although next time I will put less butter into the mix.
They are fab!

i made these brownies in a food tech lesson at school. i had never made them before so i thought they wouldnt be very good the first time i made them. they were absolutely gorgeous! i love the gooey middle bit, it was soo nice although they were slightly sickley after eating loads of it. all my friends loved them too and people are adking me to make them again!
well, i am doing,
theyre just...FABBY!

These are unbelievably great brownies. I made some for friends at a local bar in Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland. The owner ate all of them and I had free beer for the rest of the winter. Awesome.

simply amazing

Wow - these are amazing brownies, everyone in my office loves me thanks to these little beauties!!!

Hi Jamie, i was just wondering if the chocolate used needs to be cooking chocolate or just regular fair trade chocolate, im cooking this for my boyfriend tonight so please get back to me asap.. thanks so much

These brownies are divine, I love to cook and must say i'm not a bad one, but i've never found a half decent brownie recipe before trying this one....if you want to impess new work mates or prospective inlaws (they will insist you marry their much loved son just to get there hands on more) these are the way to go :) yummyummmms

I made these Brownies and they were riduculously nice!! But use grese proof paper as if you butter the dish they become a bit too salty! But seriously easy to make and delicious!

These are definately by far the best brownies i have made- they are so easy to make, and they taste delicious! My friends keep asking me to make more to take into school all the time. Thank you!!

Hi Jamie, i was just wondering if the chocolate used needs to be cooking chocolate or just regular fair trade chocolate, im cooking this for my boyfriend tonight so please get back to me asap.. thanks so much

Nom nom nom :D

THE nicest brownies ever!! was so impressed with myself - ha! thank you :)

leaving them in the tray to cool/set is such a wise move

I am a terrible cook, but this recipe is fool proof. They are the most delicious brownies EVER! People are pestering me to make them ALL THE TIME! Thank you :)

delicious!!!!!!!!!
we eat the cookies at once but i didn't put cherries on the cookies.is that all right?or the cherries give an extra taste?

The brownies are very tasty, BUT they came out liquid on the bottom? Jamie pls, help me figure out how come they did not bake on the bottom?
Thanks a lot,

Jana.

These brownies are the best me or my family have ever had!! Kept the recipe and now I never get bored of baking them! Best Chocolate brownies in the world!! :)

These brownies are the best me or my family have ever had!! Kept the recipe and now I never get bored of baking them! Best Chocolate brownies in the world!! :)

baked these for work morning tea and nearly started WW3 from people fighting over them. "The meanest brownie"-said one person. By the way I substituted dried cranberries for cherries and used whole pecans

These are fantastic brownies, and now requested on a regular basis by friends and family! I do a combo of dark and milk choc and add macadamias :) Truly delicious!

hi.
i am going to try and make these in my food tech lesson on monday, i was just wandering, about how long do they take to make?!
x
please could someone who has made them reply.
thanx

amazing!

OH MY GOD! I live in the nicest village with all the oldest and wisest cooks but no one bakery make brownies as good as these. I don't know how you do it Jamie but your brilliant!! Thanx :)

These brownies are amazing! I looove chocolate, so this is the real deal to me! They are very easy to make and taste absolutely delicious!

These are fabulous - so easy to make and so tasty. My trick though is to use less butter - i found 250g was swimming in the bowl and i use self-raising flour instead of plain with baking pwd.

I LOVED this recipe, thanx! everyone loved it!

bye!

Hi,I'm from Austria-we love to eat delicious things - No wonder I like the cooking from Jamie! But: I avoid baking-powder whenever possible. It changes the flavor of the dishes and drain it. I've got a recepe for brownies and it works without b.p. although.

Hey! I am an 11 year old norwegian boy, who loves cooking, and this is simply the best cake i have ever made!

OMG, im only 10 jamie and i loved ure brownies im a cookaholic and my mum & i love and i mean LOVE to cook ure recipes ok bye and BRAVO

Simply the best!!!!

instead of using cherries or nuts i used dark chocolate chips there were very tasty i only made a small amount but i wanted to make more

instead of using cherrys or nut you can add white choclate chunks to the mixtuere just before puttind it in the oven mmmm nice!

These are the best brownies I have EVER tasted! I included the cherries, walnuts and orange zest in the mixture which worked wonderfully. Jamie your recipes never cease to amaze me!

you're my brownie saviour! ive been looking and trying out different brownie recipes til i came on yours and its the only one among the near-dozen other recipes ive tried. its so smooth and the dark chocolate adds the right hint of bitterness amid the sweet. i have tried without the cherries and nuts first and found it to be a tad overwhelming. chocolate bits or nuts do help interlude the taste. bravo! :) thank you!

To die for and I left out the cherries and added the orange zest to the brownie mixture.

This recipe is fantastic - so easy and quick to make and the results are unbelievable!! A friend kept on saying "I can't believe this is the first time you make brownies" while scarfing them down ;-) Thank you!

Wonderful! I loved them, and it wasn't that complicated! Man, I'm gonna buy more of your books!

Amaaaaaazing!

It's extremely melt-in-the-mouth wonderful and marvellous. One friend could not stop eating it. And reducing the butter is OK, too. Thanks much, Mr Oliver!
