These were spectacular! Definitely going to be a staple for me now. I made the mistake (?) of warming them a little before serving a la mode (not thinking about the high chocolate content) and they turned into a kind of rich chocolate pudding. The audience was split on whether they were better hot or cold!

I work with your mom at Sugar Butter Flour and she told me to check out your blog - and I haven't been disappointed! Keep up the great work, you've inspired me to work through my own dessert recipe to-do list :)

That's me -- the one who loves the crispy edges. And your pics have me salivating because I also am addicted to the top crackly part of a brownie. Have never baked the Tartine version, but now you have convinced me to!

I forgot to mention that I've had the brownies from Tartine's. The last one cost me $68.50 - $3.50 for the brownie and $65 for the ticket for double parking. Was it worth it?
Yes.

shopeatsleep - You will have to make these brownies (sans nuts) and let me know what you think!

Tzviah - Linda Mayman's brownies are incredible and I can't say anything negative about them. Maybe they are on an equal playing field with Tartine's. :)

Vice Girl - Thanks! Though you, Miss Sweet Tooth, are easy to please! :)

Uncle Gary - You are absolutely right, and so I've gone back into the post and updated it with a little shout out to you and Aunt Francie! Thanks so much for the cookbook. It's changed my life!

That recipe looks dynamite! Very simple ingredients, and extremely chocolate-centric! But are you saying that these brownies are even better than Linda Mayman's?!

Marni, these brownies look amazing! I'm not a baker, but I am obsessed with brownies, and I also like chocolaty, fudgy brownies. BUT I don't like nuts in mine -- I'm a chocolate purist LOL. Anyway, the chocolate part of these brownies look to die for!

Mom - Next time I'm up, wanna have a pound of Callebaut or El Rey ready to go? Consider it a worthwhile expenditure. I'll bake you some brownies!

SinoSoul - So funny. I know, my mom is probably my number one fan and most regular reader. I love it! And I'm shocked you haven't already ordered the brownie at Tartine, though I can't actually vouch for it since what I've fallen in love with is their cookbook version. You'll have to report back!

Being the baker that I am, I still like to experiment with brownie recipes. Whenever I do, it incites my husband (i.e. Marni's father) to complain why would I ever make another brownie. Only Tartine's will do, AND made only by his daughter! So, Marni we need a new batch!! :-)
