Pour batter into your prepared baking tin and bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting (they are more crumbly in texture than typical brownies). Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for about three days but will last a few days longer if kept in an airtight container in the fridge.
