This comment left on a New York Times brownie recipe has quite a twist at the end

@Samdolnick over on Twitter has spotted quite a comment in response to a recipe called Katharine Hepburn’s brownies.

“This has been my go-to brownie recipe for 30 years, even after going to baking school! I agree that using the best cocoa possible makes a difference. These days, I use Callebaut,” Sydne Newberry wrote one year ago. Fair enough!

“In the ‘80s, an acquaintance in Germany to whom I brought some of the brownies, and who considered herself a great cook, asked for the recipe but was never able to get it to work. She kept asking me what she was doing wrong and I was never able to solve her problem. Eventually, she moved to the US and stole my husband!”

“What’s better, great Brownies or mediocre husband? Thinking the former.” notes @Mcoogan97.

“Over 300 readers found the comment to be helpful so her destroyed marriage is not in vain.” writes @Aaronjosborne.
