More About This Recipe

  • Though it’s difficult to wait for brownies to cool and set (trust us, we understand the struggle!), this is an important step for both taste and presentation. If you try to cut into the brownies right away, you’ll end up with a big, hot mess. So set your timer and wait—you’ll be happy you did! Cutting brownies even after they have had time to cool can still be a challenge, especially if there’s a creamy layer as is the case with this honey brownies recipe. You can still cut perfect bars by following a couple of expert tips! For one, make sure you use a plastic knife. Plastic knives are naturally non-stick, so they will help you to make straight, clean cuts. After you cut each slice, simply wipe of the extra crumbs with a paper towel and continue cutting the remaining servings. Impress your guests at every party with this brownie recipe and plenty more from our huge brownie collection.
