  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that they bake evenly.
  • Do not overbake the brownies: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them: This will help prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature: They will keep for up to 3 days.
