Aunty Yo,

Thank you for posting your chocolate brownie recipe. May I check if I can bake this inside the 10 x 10 inch square tray instead of 8 x 12 inch?

Thank you.

With love,
Jacqueline

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Jacqueline,

I think it shouldn't be a problem to use a 10" square tin.

hi aunty,
can u tell me your recipe will produce which type of brownies?
cakey / fudgy or chewy? so i will know whether i get the right result

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi dtwhale,

it's a little fudgey and a little cakey (in the middle) but I think sometimes it depends on your eggs.

Hi Aunty Yochana,

I tried the brownie and may I ask how come only the centre of it rises and crack while the sides don't rise? Where did I gone wrong in doing it?

Aunty I received reply in email regarding your classes previously but I am unable to attend as I also had other commitments on those days.

Nevertheless, I still look forward to be able to attend any of your lessons if time and day permits.

Your blog always makes me drool and had been looking forward to more pics of your bakes.

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Yinyin,


it could be due to your oven's heat or it could be due to way you mix it.

Hi Yochana,
I made the Chocolate brownies and it turn out very well and I took some for My ex-schoolmates gathering and everybody likes it cos' it's so rich and moist. They even asked me to email your recipes to them. I am very very happy that I am able to try out the recipes that you have shared. I am really grateful and thankful to you for your unselfishness to share with us.
