I've made these several times over the years.Very rich as stated before.I cut,wrap indivdually and freeze than take out when we need a special treat.

Although Baker’s one bowl brownies are still my favorite recipe, it is fun to try new ones. I should have paid more attention to the size of the large sheet pan. At least I lined it with foil and so it did not flow over. Two 9 X 13” pans (or one for half of the recipe) would have been the perfect size. Because it came out too thick it became a little crumbly around the edges. But by letting it rest overnight I was able to cut it into 1 ½ inch squares. I liked the richness from all of the walnuts. I used all dark chocolate chips instead of the mixture of different types of chocolate she used and it turned out fine.
I agree. These are fabulous.

The name really says it all- these are outrageously good! Luckily, they are rich so it's hard to overindulge. I cannot imagine cutting these into 20 brownies- that would be an incredibly large serving. I would suggest cutting them into at least 32 smallish brownies.
It is great that they can be made and refrigerated up to a week ahead of time. It was such a help to me that I could make them on a Sunday and give them away on Wednesday without worrying that they wouldn't be fresh. I did not add walnuts and they were delicious without them.
