• A 9*9-inch pan can be used for this recipe, however, the brownies will be thinner than the ones in an 8*8-inch pan.
• In addition, the bake time is likely to be affected since oven brands and bakeware is different. Please note, that metal pans cook faster than glass. Please keep a close eye on the brownies as you approach the end of baking.
• But if your oven does not have a timer, please purchase a kitchen timer in order for the brownies to bake well. 
• The temperature is important in this recipe; always use the correct degrees. In case your oven doesn’t show degrees, ensure to always use an oven thermometer for the correct readings. Do not make assumptions.
