This is another recipe that I have made before but am just now getting around to blogging. This recipe from Ina Garten is my go to brownie recipe and never disappoints! I halved the recipe and baked in an 8-inch square baking dish.

Amanda's Analysis:
These brownies definitely lived up to their name, they were outrageous! The use of melted chocolate in stead of cocoa powder makes them so much richer. They are moist, rich, chocolaty and just plain delicious! I give these brownies 7 spoons!

John's Jibba-Jabba:
These brownies were fantastic, though I am not sure that they were outrageous. Outrageous is typically defined as passing reasonable bounds; intolerable or shocking. These brownies were exactly what I expected and not intolerable or shocking at all. That is exactly what I am looking for in my brownies. These guys get 7 spoons.
