2.0 out of 5 starsHorrible if you follow the directions precisely - had to throw them away - soo oily

I was exited to make these even though I am not a cook (I am lucky to follow directions in general when cooking). Because of my lack of baking/cooking prowess, I VERY exactly followed the directions to ensure I made them just right. Using the directions, I chose to use coconut oil, extra virgin, as I like the flavor. I melted it, added the other ingredients and mixed thoroughly. I put them in the oven using the parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray. I had to cook them more than 30 minutes just to get them solid enough to take out of the oven (which is much longer than is listed on the instructions). They were so horrifically greasy/oily that they were completely inedible. I can only assume that it was due to the coconut oil. The batter tasted amazing but the final product was worse than the greasiest pizza (I put them on 4 layers of paper towels and they soaked completed through all of it). I bought two packages so plan to try cutting the oil in half and hope that makes them edible. The same happened with the regular brownies from Good Dee's that I cooked at the same time. Such a disappointment as I REALLY wanted to love these (and it was a waste of quite a bit of money since these aren't cheap) and I have already purchased muffins and other items from the same company. Hopefully the rest will be better or I will have to look elsewhere for my future sweet tooth needs.
