The best brownie I have ever tasted or baked is the one using Ina Garten's recipe. Her recipe produces very rich and delicious brownies but over the years I have changed a few things here and there and often made brownies that I now call my own version. I was thinking of making some brownies for a very long time and finally with the use of a kitchen aid mixer I had the pleasure of making brownies last Sunday. It makes all the difference with an good electric mixer for it makes the end product amazing. The major ingredient change I made to the recipe was substituting brown sugar for white sugar. The brownie had a milder sweet and it highlighted the taste of chocolate which i thought was very interesting.
