Summary: An often used book in my collection
Comment: My favorite thing about this book is I can make brownies spur-of-the-moment, with what's on hand. Out of unsweetened chocolate? There's a brownie recipe using chocolate chips or cocoa. Out of cocoa? There's a brownie recipe with chocolate syrup as the chocolate! I enjoy a decadent, chocolate dessert as much as the next person and do make the more complicated recipes requiring combinations of bittersweet and semi-sweet chocolates for an extraordinarly special tasting brownie. There are also wonderful icing recipes if you prefer your brownies iced. But, when I need a brownie right away, I turn to this book. With only a few basic cooking ingredients, I can bake brownies tasting much better than a box, with only slightly more effort.

Comment: Recipes are fine however, this book does not contain pictures of the brownies. I like to have an idea of what a recipe should look when completed.

Summary: browines galore
Comment: If you love brownines, or just plain chocolate, this book has got a little something for just about every kind of craving you could have. The recipes set up like the recipes from Weinstein's other Ultimate cookbooks where there is a basic recipe with many variations or add-ins so that you can make almost brownie you might be craving. As another reviewer posted, many of the recipes do use eggs and butter, but there are also low-fat and somewhat healthier versions of brownies as well (Low-fat, Applesauce, Fat-free, Gluten-free to name a few). I especially recommend the Cocoa Brownies, they are always a favorite, and the suggestion in the recipe intro is right on, the brownies are totally awesome right out of the freezer! Great cookbook, certainly doesn't need any pictures to enhance what your mind already knows a brownie to look like.

Summary: Awesome
Comment: I am someone who not only owns the book but has baked the recipes. Excellent book for any baker. Brownies should always be loaded with eggs and butter...it is a brownie. Excellent, I plan to buy his muffin book.

Summary: brownies, brownies
Comment: I bought this book because I saw these guys on The View and checked out some of their other titles. Brownies galore. I think my favorite part of this book are the ideas of what to do with a box of brownie mix. Yes, I'm that lazy. I made the cheesecake brownies. My husband threatened to divorce me if I ever "made" him eat anything that good again. I also made these blondies that have more chocolate than dough. Something like more-chocolate-than-blondie blondies. Anyway, I took them to a bake sale and was instantly Mrs. Popularity at school. Everybody else brought prepackaged things and I showed up with this tray of blondies that knocked them out. The teachers bought so many, I don't think the students had a chance. Great book. Heavy on the butter and chocolate, as another reviewer points out--but hey, if you're going to make brownies. . . .
