    I followed the recipe exactly. After baking the brownie layer was still raw. I left it in the oven another 20 minutes and it's still a gloppy mess. The pumpkin layer is too thick and the instructions for the topping didn't say to melt the margarine, so the topping comes out like toasted flour. - 2/6/15
