MY TIPS
This is my first brownie attempt and I found this recipe quick and easy. Not to mention,yummy! If you are a first timer, you will know your brownies are cooked when you can poke a skewer or knife into the middle of them and it comes out clean. Remember though, the chocolate chips make have melted and if your skewer hits one of those, it might look as if the mixture is still wet. I also mix the cocoa and sugar together in the bowl first rather than adding one after the other to have a better well-mixed consistency (maybe my extemporaneous preparation in the pharmacy helps to explain this!). If you don’t want to put chocolate chips, you can always add other variations such as white chocolate or dark chocolate,whatever that ticks your fancy.
