SMS Black Bottom Brownies

I have no pictures to show as we don't have our computer set up to put pictures on for now but I am back to baking.
I tried the Black Bottom Brownies and was so excited to make them for my husband who has his birthday today. He loves cheesecake and chocolate.
Well , after using 12 eggs, 2 cream cheese packets, a whole bag of chocolate chips, a Delicious chocolate bar, 2 sticks of butter, and all that goes in to making brownies, They failed.
I put them in the oven as directed, baked for an hour and took them out because they were getting brown. BIG Mistake! They didn't set up in the middle. So I thought I would let them cool and they would set up , they didn't. I then decided I would put them back in the oven. They never set up in the middle and the top and sides were so burned they were not edible.
So at 11pm, I pulled out my Duncan Hines and made my husband a chocolate cake. I think he was a bit disappointed but he will love it.
Anyway, I hope others had better luck than me.Check out Cynthia at Baking Therapist and see how she did. I'm sure they were delicious!

What a disappointment! I'm sorry these didn't work out for you, especially since you were making them for your husband's birthday. I hope next week's recipe goes better!

Well that sucks! Sorry, it didn't work out for you, but at least you tried!

Oh man, what a bummer. It really stinks that these didn't turn out after you'd poured so much effort into them. Hope your husband's birthday was nice regardless!

I had almost the same baking problem. I left mine in until the top was brown rather than golden. The brownie part was hard on the edges. They seemed to get better after sitting in the fridge overnight.

Gosh that really stinks..sorry they were a flop. Happy birthday to your hubby!

OH bummer!!! That's a LOT of ingredients! I would think THAT hurts as much as having to resort to Duncan Hines.

Oh well....

Another time maybe?!

Still praying for you,
Kathryn

So heartbreaking when good desserts go bad! I'm sorry yours didn't turn out after all that work!

Stephanie said...

Aw, I'm sorry your creation didn't work out! Its such a stinker when you use so many ingredients and it doesn't work!!! I hope it works out better next time!

Just get back on the horse again! Anytime I have a flop, I make something else and it makes me feel better again knowing that I can make something good! Keep trying!
