Actually, they were one of the best chocolate desserts I have ever had. The consistency was perfect - nice and chewy- and they had an incredibly deep and rich dark/semi sweet chocolate taste. Haven't tried making just the brownies but if they aren't chewy i think i'll just stick to the cookies.

WOW. Well Done! I am a professional chef and work with children in the kitchen in many different capacities. Cake mixes are where I started out as a child cooking alone actually :) and were a safe venue for me to have instant success when I was 9 or 10 and wanting to bake. Now, as a professional in the field, I see moms who want to cook with their kids but are intimidated, and feel inadequete to cook together with their children, even from a recipe. A cake mix can be the perfect starting point for this type of situation. Whatever you have to do, just DO IT. Cook with your kids. THis is such a unity builder in my family and my kids are so self sufficient as a result. Of course we have rules, which we review before starting, and I am always ready to dismiss those who do not follow the rules. That is my job, but it rarely happens. We now have huge collection of wonderful stories of our successes as well as our flops and laugh together over things gone wrong. I always say "well, there goes .50$ in ingredients... no biggie" And it is no biggie. We also have allowed each other to become the resident expert in each of our niche culinary interests. We talk food a lot. Now they refuse to eat at Mc Donalds. An investment of time and love that has paid off well, indeed. I wish you well and thanks again for such an inspirational blog.
