I accidentally mixed the cream cheese in with the brownie mix but it still turned out great. It was very moist and everyone loved it.

This was WONDERFUL! I'm diabetic, so I substituted SPLENDA for the sugar, used low-fat cream cheese and because I like nutmeg with cinnamon, I add 1/2 teaspoon of it . I can't say how the rest of the family liked it, because they wouldn't try it, because of the changes it I made, but guess what? That just meant more for me. ~ I only have one complaint and that is it was almost impossible to get the foil off the bottom. I greased it was butter, maybe I should have used shortening. I will next time. There will definitely a next time. ~~~Amity Oregon

I have made these brownies several times since their debut at Thanksgiving! People love them and they are so easy to make!

Great tasting bars! The only thing I would do different next time is to not add coffee granules. I probably should have chopped them up finer. Would recommend if you like coffee!

with decaf granules it's great for kids to act grownup :-)

These are the best, great with a BIG FAT cup of hot chocolate. I'll worry about my hinney after the holidays.

I love the recipes from kraft. The ingredients are easy to find and I do not have to go to gourmet stores to make the recipes . I baked the brownies yesterday and I have only 3 pieces left. My family loves it very much. Thank you, kraft.

These were really good, but a little involved. P.S. I agree! Get a grip. What a party pooper!

This does sound delicious. I, too, must tell bamadarling that holiday cookies are to be enjoyed- not worried about. Please try finding a lowfat recipe site and stop letting us all know what you would do differently.

Loved the brownies! Super moist and delicious! I agree--you DO NOT need to make these low fat/sugar/sodium--where's the fun in that? Life's too short--eat a brownie, live a little. Also, please don't rate a recipe one star if you don't make it like it says...that skews the ratings and is not fair.
