Baking is one of my favorite hobbies, and my wife says these brownies topped with a cream cheese layer are outstanding. When you really want to impress, drizzle them with caramel sauce and sprinkle on chocolate curls. -Lyle Borcherding, Johnstown, Pennsylvania

These brownies were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I won't be making them again.

I was a bit skeptical about the snowcapped frosting, but it turned out to be delicious! It's a great way to add a little extra sweetness and creaminess to the brownies.

These brownies are amazing! The recipe is easy to follow, and the results are out of this world. The brownies are fudgy and rich, and the frosting is the perfect finishing touch.
