If they came out caky and dry, there was either a mistake in the ingredients, mixing or baking time. The recipe posted here has all the correct amounts, I compared it with my Maida Heatter recipe. I make one change because I am not a big fan of walnuts - I substitute pecans, and before I use them, I toast them for 10 minutes as the oven is preheating - I find that virtually all nuts used in baking taste better and have a better texture if they are toasted before use. Maida Heatter was the Empress of chocolate, thanks for sharing this.mahajomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12232017973542329928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381055629874919944.post-28586470220293017522014-03-03T07:46:29.549-08:002014-03-03T07:46:29.549-08:00I don't know Linzer, mine were very moist and ...I don't know Linzer, mine were very moist and delicious.

It came out nothing like brownies - it tasted like dry, inedible, bitter chocolate cake. We threw the whole thing out. I made it exactly as directed, measured everything, and used good ingredients.
