Looking forward to making these myself. In the meantime, you're very brave to film a baking video outside - wind! insects! noise! Glad it all worked out.
I have been on the search for a good brownie recipe. I made this recipe yesterday afternoon, only having unsalted butter, I added 3/4 teaspoon of salt and too lazy to go get roasted peanuts I substituted roasted walnut pieces. First off, you're right the recipe could handle more nuts (up to 100 grams?) for my taste as well. I was concerned that the recipe might be too spicy for northern New England, but I found the brownies to be exceptionally moist, flavorful, not overly spiced, with a delightful long finish. Great recipe! Please thank Carlos for sharing. It is breakfast time here now, so I am thinking a nice Sunday breakfast of coffee and brownies.
What a fabulous way to wake up here on the West coast of California! Great video and interview. Yes of course I’ll be baking those brownies. Thank you for sharing!!
You may have mismeasured? Or some butter can vary. I’ve made them a lot and they always come out week and the food stylist on the shoot made them, George, and he couldn’t stop eating them :)
I wish I had seen this before we went to Paris a few weeks (where you signed my Great Book of Chocolate! Thank you.). In Porto we have a foodie friends whatsapp group where we try Mexican restaurants every three weeks. Road trip to Paris???
I watched this only just now. Yum to the brownie, but your garden is gorgeous…. Not too manicured, just lovely. A true luxury in Paris!!
LOVE Comer and yes to Mexican food in Paris and everywhere !
I can hardly wait to make these brownies! A question about conbining the chocolate
mixture with the egg/sugar mixture. In step 3 the direction is to "into the melted chocolate
mixture while in the video the chocolate mixture is added to the egg/sugar one. Does it make a difference which one is poured into the other?

I grew up cooking in restaurant kitchen so heat, noise, and wind don't bother me : )
Thank you David. Loved it

A delightful video! I really enjoyed it!
Thanks- we had so much fun baking together😊😊
Looks delicious! The Mexican restaurant sounds delicious too.
It is!
I reviewed the recipe and I made a measurement mistake
No baking at 4:00 am!!!
😊😊😅
I will try again
Wow I love mole and love brownies. This is going into the recipe rotation! One question: Does he remove the seeds from the chilies or keeps them?
I don’t know. He used to do classes but I didn’t get a chance to take one.

David:
I know that you are great !
I purchased 4 of your autographed books from Rizzoli in NYC.
I could not make it to your book tour.
I have a question about a recipe in your ‘Ready for Dessert’ book.
I made your brown sugar-pecan shortbread recipe.
I doubled the recipe as taking it to an event.
Well the dough was very very dry and would not hold together.
I added a little water.
I let it spend the night in the refrigerator.
I baked them this morning and they are boring!!
What did I do incorrectly?!?
Thanks
Dawn

These will be made today! Thank you, David! Oh, to be in Paris...Comer sounds wonderful!
Comer is very (very) good and Carlos is a great cook - my only wish it that it was on the same block where we live : )
The brownies look delicious! Your backyard was a beautiful back drop for the video!
Yes, it's nice when we can use the yard for sure!

Thanks for coming to the event! Comer is on my list of Paris Favorites so you might want to bookmark that page for future trips : )
