No, but it does reduce it. We have always heard that alcohol cooks out, and while that is true, it's a bit misleading. It takes longer than most any dessert recipe bakes for to fully cook out the alcohol. The alcohol content will reduce while baking, but we do not bake the recipe anywhere near long enough for the alcohol to fully cook out. However, these luxurious red wine brownies have just a cup of wine in the full batch (that's less than 1 tablespoon of wine per brownie) so though the wine flavor will be prominent, the alcohol content in an individual brownie will be fairly minimal.
