  • Use good quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly affect the flavor of the brownies. Use a high-quality chocolate that you enjoy eating.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking the brownies will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: Cutting the brownies while they are still warm will make them fall apart.
