I made them last Saturday but sugar never melted with the butter nor in the micro nor on the stovetop! I threw away the first try and the second that I made on the stovetop I mixed with the mixture of cocoa and eggs, put the flour and chips for melting them baked it for 30 minutes and ...they were AWESOME! my family loved them and they tasted even better next day, reheated in the micro for 10 seconds and with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on them! But what could had happened with sugar and butter I used 2 sticks of butter and the 2 1/4 cups of sugar as the recipe said? I keep them at room temp. just cover with a sheet of foil, and they keep fresh Thanks for a great recipe!!
I'm not sure why the butter and sugar would not have melted down. It should be done over low heat, perhaps it was too hot? ~ MaryJane
