Thank you so much, Frank! Happy New Year!

We should give that "butter that pan" thing a thought. Why waste animal's excretions on something that doesn't need any taste? Some cows really suffered for this "product". Have some respect.

I love brownies and I can’t wait to try this recipe!

I would appreciate it a ton if the recipe or a link to the recipe was included in the video description.

I see Frank, I click Like.

New Chef Proto video 👀😍

Why do you guys make it so hard to find the recipe? Just post the link to the recipe under the description!

I might be high...but those brownies just floated out of nowhere...

What do the chocolate bars weigh?

I'm sold. Making brownies tomorrow.

Seed oil... outta here!

Let's gooo!

Edit : I made this with less sugar. Very fudgy and tastyyy 😍😍

My absolute FAVORITE dessert. Thank you for this! I don't know how many times the boxed stuff has let me down...

This sucks!!!

I have no idea why I'm watching this. I'm far more interested in savoury snacks but I just can't click past a frank video.

This is the best recipe to post after the holiday season is over. Just by watching this video I doubled my end-of-year weight gain.

Vegetable oil?🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Everyone hates on cake brownies I swear

It feels like the one in The Incredibles 😍

Don't deny me my warm brownies.

If you don’t like to cook with vegetable oil, what oil do you recommend?

shouldn‘t there be some hash or weed inside?

The best brownies are with walnuts. Just saying.

When do we get a Frank Proto cookbook!? I'd buy it in a heartbeat

Frank, you did a lot more whining in this video than normal. It completely negates your signature enthusiasm. You are making brownies, not sintering plutonium.

Why would anyone like thin brownies????

What chocolate did you use?

Can you do it without eggs.

Poor filming. Brownies are just black blobs

They look amazing, but when do you add the "stuff"?

Clicks to watch
Mouth salivates and drools down cheek
Back aches as run to the fridge
Searching for eggs, butter, bitter chocolate…
Remembers, “hehh, I haven’t gone shopping this year”
Moans back into bed bookmarking the video for tomorrow’s food run

6 chocolate bars!! Jeez that's a $20 pan of brownies. They better be orgasmic for that price. Even Gordon Ramsey's brownies served in Michelin starred restaurants costs less per pan.

Frank❤

Hi could I use davidoff coffee instead of instant coffee

Ah yes, my favorite chef, Prank Froto

I still don't understand why people don't use a large pizza cutter for cutting brownies.

Gotta be honest, I like that crispy top, adds a slight crunch-but these do look fudgy!

We use Guittard Cocoa Rouge Dutch process cocoa at our bakery and it’s fantastic! That cocoa alone adds a nice fudge flavor to our double chocolate cookies and the color is outrageous! I will definitely have to try the whisk in the sifter trick, should cut down on the mess of shaking the sifter. While we don’t offer brownies on our menu, I will definitely have to give this a try.

Thank You!! 😊

Chef Frank's natural charisma translates to effortless rapport with the viewer.

I wish Americans could just follow the metric system pls 😭

These look great though

These look perfect! These are brownies! Cakey brownies aren’t brownies. They’re cake.

Seriously how do you not have a recipe with weight measurements? Especially for a baking dish using cups is really bad

use grams please...cups are so annoyingggg

😊

no brown butter is insane.

I like brownies real brown so used half dark cocoa powder & half black cocoa powder.

“And now we’re going to add 1 1/2 pounds of purple dank to our butter mix. Really want to get that noggin joggin after taking one bite if you know what i mean.”
