Can I substitute fireball whiskey for the vanilla extract ?
Alex
I bet that would be good! Extra cinnamon and a compliment to the brown sugar. I wonder if it makes much of a difference?

Delightful. Sprinkled butterscotch chips on 1/3, chocolate chips on 1/3, and plain. All wonderful. So easy with everything at home. This is a keeper. Oh, and the kitchen smells like cinnamon and vanilla.

What size pan should I use for this recipe?
OneHowTo Editor
Hi Marianne,

It depends on how thick you want the brownies, but a classic 9" x 13" oblong baking pan will work.
Frank
Just wondering...what size pan did you use for this recipe?
OneHowTo Editor
It's a pretty average size, we can't say for sure but we'd say it's around 35 cm long x 15 cm wide.
Hope this helps
