The brownies were good, but I think they would have been better with a little more chocolate.

I followed the recipe exactly and the brownies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these brownies were surprisingly mild. The chipotle peppers added just a hint of heat that was really nice.

These brownies were a hit at my party! They were fudgy, moist, and had the perfect amount of spice. The chipotle peppers added a subtle smokiness that really complemented the chocolate.
