I just tried this brownie mix, making one change by adding 3/4 cup of chocolate chips. Using Splenda as my sweetener, I cooked the minimum amount of time (25 minutes) as specified on the packaging. My family is really into brownies and a mix is a quick way of putting this snack together. In addition, this brownie mix has only 9 net carbs according to the package.
I found that the mix prepared was a little dry but I just pressed into an 8 inch square pan. After the brownies cooked up, me and partner tried them out. I found the packaged mix to be a little dry tasting as well. Brownie are meant to partially moist and yummy. The texture of the brownie was more like a dry biscuit. However, it was good with a cup of coffee in the morning, but we will likely stick with the Duncan Hines package.
