Gary from Florida submitted this recipe: When I went to make this cake I didn't have a box of Brownie mix. So I found one on the net and and adjusted the recipe to fit the pan you called for and it worked perfectly.

Plus, this Brownie recipe is as goof proof as the recipe you have for the filling.

1 cup sugar

1/2 tsp salt

Then combine all ingredients in one bowl mix well and pour into spring form pan that has been sprayed with no stick spray.
