Chewy edges
I make a pan of brownies now and then and I prefer a heavier, gooey type of brownie over than a lighter, cake-like brownie. I don't like the chewy edges to be harder than the middle, but if you don't bake them long enough you end up with the middle brownies being more like a hot, thick milkshake than a brownie. So I end up baking them too long and then I've been known to cut the hard edges off, which wastes a good portion of a batch.
Now there's a brownie baking pan that claims to make perfect brownie edges and more of them. The inventors of the pan also recommend making lasagna in the pan. No more extremely chewy, dried-out lasagna edges? I love the idea, but I know that a lot of foodies who love digging out those dried, chewy lasagna corners at potlucks are going to miss the crunch of a noodle that drifted above the sauce line. The brownie pan is appropriately called Baker's Edge
