Hi Jacklyn,
ReplyDeleteThe important tip for baking brownies is not to overbake them. Stick your skewer into the brownie and the skewer should feel a little sticky. Take out from the oven and the brownie will still continue cooking outside.

Hi Aunty,
ReplyDeleteI just made this recipe yesterday and it was almost perfect until I forgot the milk portion. As a result, my brownies are a little hard, would the brownies been softer if i had included the milk?
Thanks!!

ReplyDeletethe milk is compulsory.

Hi Aunty,
ReplyDeleteI made this brownies in the afternoon today, but decided not to add the coffee content, the result was that the brownies were a little dry and there were plenty of air holes. Do help as i like the taste.
