I noticed the copper pan rage has subsided on TV, why? Because they did not do what they were supposed to do after the first or second use. I must have given 10 or so copper skillets as gifts and I was in a rage when I discovered that they did not work as presented on TV. All but two: this brownie pan works like a charm and the meatloaf pan with the insert that lifts the loaf up and away from the grease. I am going to try it for sweet loaves too, once I am in the mood. Strangely, these two pans were not shown on TV to my knowledge.
I recommend both of these and Andy just brought home a second brownie pan which I will give David when he comes home. It is like an icecube tray. You pour the batter into the pan and set the divider in on top and bake. You are then blessed with 18 brownies a bit larger than a good-sized ice cube that slips right off the insert like it's been buttered. I have never buttered or greased this pan and have made brownies in it at least a half dozen times. It simply works. Who'd a thought, after so many failures?
