Notes

  • What’s the best way to get clean slices? Use a plastic knife to cut brownies and get clean slices. I don't know why it works so well but gooey brownies won't stick to a plastic knife!
  • How do you know brownies are done? Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick two inches from the edge. It should come out clean with just a few crumbs.
