If you want elegant even-edged brownies, it is important to let them cool COMPLETELY before attempting to slice. Grab a sharp chef's knife, a dish rag, and a glass of hot water. Dip your knife into the water before making a cut into your brownies. Then wipe the knife with your rag, dip into the water again, and make the next cut. This ensures the fudgy goodness doesn't get stuck to you knife. If you're like me you like your brownies warm! Letting them cool before slicing takes away some of the indulgence so you've got a couple of options. Either reheat the sliced brownie in the microwave for 15-30 seconds OR just use a spoon to scoop some brownies straight out of the pan onto a scoop of vanilla ice cream and forget what it looks like:)
