I’m in the midst of a big magazine purge and my latest victim is a stack of Eating Wells from 2004. Turn, turn, read, turn, read, rip, read, rip. I’ve been doing this during dinner while we eat. Nobody cares. Anyway, last night I came across this recipe and ripped it out immediately. There’s no [...]

Today’s recipe is from Steven, who got it from a trusted source (his godmother) but couldn’t make it work. The brownies tasted good, but were goopy and seemed underdone even though they appeared fully baked. My mission was to troubleshoot. Not wanting to waste precious chocolate and Kahlua on goopy brownies, the first thing …
