\recipe[Made these for Alissa's 28th birthday and they were delicious!]{Fudgy Brownies}[From America's Test Kitchen Cooking for Two, page 388. Uses a loaf pan and yields 8 brownies. Loaf pan dimensions are \cunum{8_1/2}{in} by \cunum{4_1/2}{in}; if you use a \cunum{9}{in} by \cunum{5}{in} loaf pan, start checking for doneness 5 minutes earlier than advised in the recipe.\\Be careful not to overbake these brownies or they will have a very dry, cakey texture.]

Make foil sling for loaf pan by folding 2 long sheets of aluminum foil; first sheet should be \cunum{8_1/2}{in} wide and second sheet should be \cunum{4_1/2}{in} wide. Lay sheets of foil in pan perpendicular to each other, \textbf{with an inch of foil hanging over sides of pan to grab later}, smoothing foil flush to pan. Grease foil.
