Since you were just substituting olive oil for the vegetable oil amount on the box, there should not have been any issues. I have a table in my book (page 202) and on my website for converting butter amounts to olive oil. Don’t know what happened; perhaps contact the brownie mix company.

They were crispy on top and dough in the middle, you had to eat them with a spoon! I used the amount of oil on the box, what happened? Also, do I add extra flour to cookies to make up for the extra liquid? I used olive oil in brownie mixes, for Chritmas last year & they didn’t cook in the middle!

The word "neutral" means without intensity, so make sure you use a late harvest or delicate/mild olive oil. Don't use Italian varietals or Tuscan blends, they will be too intense. Would you mind posting the recipe. Sounds great! Let us know how it turns out. 1 cup of oil is 1 cup of extra virgin olive oil also.

It calls for 1 cup of neutral oil. Can I substitue olive oil? And if so how much? I found a great Chocolate Dulce de Leche recipe from Argentina. It calls for 1 cup of neutral oil.

Perhaps you used a Tuscan varietal olive oil. You must use low intensity or late harvest EVOO to get the best results.
