Blackout Brownie (Cakey Version) and Bite

By Rumblingtummy @RumblingTummi
After the success of the Blackout brownie, today, I shall try another version, the Blackout Brownie (cakey version).
Not planning properly, I cannot find the base of my cake pan.  Left with no choice, I had to bake this into two tiny loaves and thus explains the flat out brownie.  Whatever size it may be, this is good.  Just need to watch the baking time carefully so that you won't dry out the brownie.

I kept forgetting that this recipe yield only a small portion so I bake this the second time, as hub and I finished it up the first round, leaving nothing for the kids.
This time, I found another baking tin and turned it into a brownie bite.  Yes, they do look ugly right?  But trust me, the taste and texture are far from it.  
This is going to be part of my pot luck item.  Easy peasy.
