I found original "The Joy of Cooking" brownie recipe
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/brownie-recipes-from-joy-of-cooking/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/brownie-recipes-from-joy-of-coo...
and compared it with the recipe Chat-GPT gave you.
Now, I'm not a great baker, so I'll relay heavily on "The Joy of Cooking" explanations.
chat-GPT: 2. Mix melted butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time
you can see how its a bad idea. Butter melting point is somewhere in 82.4–96.8 °F (28–36 °C). Eggs could be cooked at that temperature. Some of the proteins would harden prematurely.
Also, who uses "1 cup of butter" as a measure. Original recipe calls for 1 stick of butter, but google says that 1 cup is 2 sticks.
Maybe chat-GPT switched chocolate from original recipe with 1 stick of butter and cocoa powder?
Chat-GPT doesn't mention beating mixture up either. Introducing more air to the mixture would make brownies better.
Based on my experience, this chat-GPT recipe would make you some nice cookies, but not brownies.
