This is my favorite dessert ever. I had my siste-in-law over for supper last night and I had made these brownies. She loved them and asked for the recipe, that's when I came to the website and saw the one star. They come out so moist and tastes delicious.<\/p>
Thank you Gloria for these wonderful brownies.<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"01\/21\/2009 08:46","GUID":"73e8413f0410454497450cbb1819f3ae","MemberId":2573783,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"BestCook100Percent","SubmittedDate":"01\/21\/2009 08:46"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"04\/02\/2008 02:19","GUID":"751C2B88B7314E8EBFE12C47DABC5F1C","MemberId":2996375,"Rating":1,"ScreenName":"heidisilvan","SubmittedDate":"04\/02\/2008 02:19"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
