Can I bake brownies in a glass Pyrex?
A glass pan is the ideal type of pan for baking brownies. Why? Unlike metal pans, glass pans heat up at a slower rate, and once hot, they get very hot.
Is it better to bake brownies in a glass or metal pan?
Glass bakeware is heavier and slower to heat than metal, but once it's hot…it retains that heat for much longer. So when using a glass pan to bake something like a cake or batch of brownies, you may find that the sides and bottom are brown at a much faster rate than the interior cooks.
Do brownies take longer in glass pan?
Generally speaking, you want to turn the temperature down by 25° and bake longer (but how much longer can be tough to determine). So that means that brownies baked in a glass pan take longer to bake, and it's unfortunately easy to overbake them because the center takes longer to bake than the edges.
What kind of pan is best for baking brownies?

Can I use Pyrex instead of baking pan?
So if you're in a pinch and need to use glass or ceramic cookware for recipes that call for baking pans, reduce the baking temperature by about 25ºF. It's also important to note some glassware such as Pyrex can be prone to thermal shock, meaning rapid change in temperature could cause your bakeware to shatter.
Can I bake a cake in a glass Pyrex dish?
Yes, in fact, I would recommend it. Pyrex is specifically designed to be oven safe and handles fairly extreme temperatures, some saying up to 500F. I would always err on the side of caution, though, and stick to lower temperatures if possible (and always 25F less than the recipe says).
What can I use if I don't have a brownie pan?

Can you bake in a glass pan?
The standard advice for baking in glass is to lower the oven temperature by 25°F from what the recipe calls for, and bake up to 10 minutes longer.
