I think "don't overbake them" should be printed in bold letters on just about every brownie recipe, actually. But I like fudgy, not cakey brownies. I understand there are people who disagree. I also have one cookbook that calls for a rather odd treatment of baking the brownies at a super-high temperature for a short time, and then putting the pan in a bath of ice water to cool quickly. makes for extra-fudgy brownies. And it works, but it's kind of a lot of effort. Usually I make the "one bowl brownies" from the inside of the Baker's unsweetened chocolate box, and toss in half a bag of chocolate chips. The inclusion of cocoa rather than melted chocolate does simplify preparation a bit, though.
