Dear BernayG No difficulty and no risk to prepare it badly. The only real care you need to take (in addition to stick to the proportions of the ingredients)is to (i) control the right cooking point of the brownie : 30 minutes is the standard timing given the 325°F temperature but it is advisable to control it, before taking it off the oven) using a clean dry blade of a knife you insert into the brownie : the blade must come out dry and (ii) to wait a little bit the brownie to cool down before cutting it into squares
