I was a little sceptical, only because my microwave oven is a little awkward when it comes to it. But I'm so impressed. These were amazing and my multipurpose microwave didn't let me down. It's too delicious. I'm going to have to hold back from making these weekly!!

Danai ★ 5.0/5

Excellent. I used brown sugar instead of white sugar. Tasty nonetheless

Abi England ★ 5.0/5

My Husband loves all things chocolate but I’m a terrible cook! When he said he wanted Brownies for his birthday BBQ I knew I had to find one of Cat’s recipes to follow. I found this one and haven’t looked back, I’ve made these several times and we both love them. Looking forward to making some more soon. Thanks Cat x

Jem ★ 5.0/5

Great recipe. I needed to bake, and I needed chocolate but a whole batch of brownies was too much. These were perfect. Squidgy, gooey and definitely not too sweet. A hit!

Emma Drake ★ 5.0/5

Wow these are amazing like chewy toffee chocolate goodness in one bite

Midge @ Peachicks' Bakery ★ 5.0/5

Yes please I'll take a small batch of these! Oh wait do I have to share them?! They look amazing! Thanks for sharing #CookBlogShare

A first brownie attempt for me and my husband said they are the best he’s ever tasted!!!

Gabriella ★ 5.0/5

Glad I found this recipe. Easy to follow without ample ingredients (my cupboards are bare and I had a sweet craving). Option to be flexible on flour and filling you want to chuck in. Turned out deliciously gooey. You know it’s a hit when your husband who isn’t a fan of sweet/cake/chocolate can’t wait to dig in and then has more!

Ok I have to try these. I'm obsessed with trying to improve my brownie recipe and your quantities are so different from mine, I need to check this out because the pictures look fab!

Did you make this recipe?
