big fat and squidgy REMAKE

so I tried to remake 'BIG FAT AND SQUIDGY'
they over cooked, but weren't in the oven for as long,
this is what changed

-the oven had been on 180degreesC from past cooking before i tuned it down to 160 degreesC, only 5 minutes before i put the batter in the oven
-i used nutelex instead of butter, as an attempt to make vegan(but with egg) brownies
-i used dark brown sugar instead of brown sugar.

the dark brown sugar definitely made a difference, but i thought it's density would account for the lack of density in the nutelex.

Next time
if cooking same recipe, do not cook for 35 minutes, cook for 20-25 minutes.
- preheat oven to 160 degrees C at last minute.
- use vegan option of butter with higher fat content...
- put more nutelex into recipe
- stick with brown sugar opposed to dark brown sugar, when mixing the sugar and eggs together, the texture was almost as if it had set when i began mixing through the chocolate mixture...

HOWEVER
if you don't like squidgy brownies, and you just like a real chocolaty cake, its peeerrrrfecto :)
