Bad Brownies, Dangerously Good + a Tasty Giveaway


One of my favourite things that I get to do as a food blogger is being able to try new things!    And when those new things are brownies, count me in!  I don't need to be asked twice!  Brownies are some of my favourite things on earth. 


And let me tell you, these Bad Brownies are so delicious they actually come with a warning! "These Brownies are dangerously good!"  And you know what?  They aren't kidding!   These brownies are fabulously tasty!  And at my ripe old age, I've tasted quite a few brownies in my life time, as well as baking some ludicrously tasty ones myself. I think I know a good brownie from a bad one, and these are incredibly edibly good.

So what makes a good brownie in your books?  I'll tell you what makes a good one in mine.  As its very basic, a good brownie should be fudgy and dense, never runny or loose.  You should be able to pick them up with  your fingers and eat them without worrying about ruining your favourite blouse.  They should be rich and chocolatey and filled with lots of yummy flavour. 

THESE BAD BROWNIES ARE ALL THAT AND MORE!

 I was sent one of their best selling  Selection Bite Brownie Boxes.  It came packaged beautifully in a sturdy box wrapped in bubble wrap, and placed within another box for safe delivery.   I could hardly wait to unwrap them.   The smell was almost intoxicating.


Inside were twelve beautifully cut, gorgeous looking brownies.  Four each of three of their most popular flavours. 



Salted Caramel - Composed of two fudgy and rich dark chocolate brownies sandwiched together with a liquid salted caramel centre and a shimmery gold finish on top

Ferrero Rocher - This hazelnut brownie includes praline, crunchy wafer and caramelised hazelnuts is more delicate than its decadent counterparts. There is a crispy topping, which gives way to a milder chocolate taste with the slightest hint of hazelnut coming through at the end.

Triple Chocolate - Their signature dark chocolate brownie packed full of white and milk chocolate chips and then coated with all three types of chocolate on top. A truly decadent take on a classic.

But would they live up to the hype?   I needed to taste them.  Yes . . .  its a tough job, but somebody has to do it.



The Salted Caramel was rich, rich, rich and magnificently messy.  There is the danger of something like this being a bit over the top, but these were not at all in the least over the top.  Deliciously dangerously fudgy  . . .  the two layers almost meld together, but then there is that salty rich caramel layer running through the middle. If you are a fan of chocolate and salted caramel, then this has your name written all over it.  The shimmer topping was a lovely finish.  Incredibly rich. If you can eat more than one of these in one sitting, more power to you! 


The Ferraro Rocher was a brilliant take on the infamous chocolate candy that people just love.  These brownies are also quite lovable.  I loved that crunchy topping and the dense fudginess of the brownie beneath it, with lots of little chunks of hazelnut scattered throughout. Incredibly moreish. 



I saved the best for last.  

Triple Chocolate.  A fudgy dark chocolate brownie jam packed with little bits of milk and white chocolate chips, and drizzled with more of the same. Oh. My. Goodness!!!  Just look at the  deep chocolatey dense fudgy interior of that bite. I just died and went to heaven! I could eat one or two of these every day and never tire of them! 

These are only three of the lush flavours they have on offer.  There are other choices and boxes to choose from.  

Try these on for size . . .  

Red Velvet Cookie Dough . . .  Strawberry Prosecco . . . Malteasers . . .  Biscoff . . .  Oreo Cookie Dough  . . . 

That is just the tip of the brownie bliss iceberg.  There are Vegan and Gluten Free Options, Brownie in a Mug Kits, Sauces, 12 and 24 bite boxes, etc. You can subscribe and get one sent to you regularly if you wish. There are Coffee and Brownie Bundles.  There are gift options.  There is a bit of something for every brownie afficionado. 

I have fallen in love.  Dangerously, badly, totally in love. 

BUT, that is not all!

I am really excited as well to be able to offer to one of my British Readers the opportunity to enter a special giveaway so that one of you can win one of their 12 Bite Brownie Boxes for yourself to enjoy in the comfort of your own home.  The giveaway will run from the 24th of August (today) until the 24th of September.

Chicken & Stuffing Casserole

  True confession here.  I love chicken (or turkey) and stuffing more than anything in the world. Even more than a good steak, and that is saying a lot!  When we have a roasted chicken or turkey dinner I always double up on the stuffing. Its quite simply a favourite with us all.  It has ever been so. That means that this Chicken and Stuffing Casserole also figures high on our list of things we love.  And for a variety of reasons!  First of all there is the stuffing, an abundance of it covering the top, crisp on the outside and yet moist beneath. Secondly there is its ease of preparation. This really could NOT be easier to make. Things are simply layered in  baking dish, covered and baked. Prepared stuffing mix.  Tinned soup with milk. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Canned green beans. Yes, canned cream of chicken soup.  I am not a canned soup snob.  So many are and I just don't get it.  I think it has great value in the kitchen...

Pineapple & Zucchini Loaf

  Its that time of year again. If you are a vegetable gardener you will know exactly what I mean. Its zucchini glut season!  That time of year when you have zucchini, or courgettes are they are known here in the UK, coming out your ears!  That time of the year when you think if you see just one more zucchini you are going to scream, and then . . .  you remember things like this delicious Pineapple Zucchini Loaf and all of a sudden everything is alright in your world again. I think zucchini has to be one of the most prolific of garden vegetables. You think you have picked it all and then it surprises you  with a gargantuan one, the size of a small dog that's been hiding underneat all of the leaf cover. You find yourself wondering how on earth you could have missed such a thing, but there it is. Its huge and you did actually miss finding it sooner. I'm not sure about you, but personally I like to pick my zucchini and use it when it is about the size of a large ban...

Apple Crisp with Sweet Biscuit Topping

    The original recipe for this delicious Apple Crisp comes from the November 1945 issue of Country Gentleman.  The original recipe serves 8 to 10 people which makes it great for large family sized get-togethers. I have adapted it to make only 4 to 5 servings however, which suits the smaller size of our family better. I just cut all the amounts in half. If you want to serve more, then you can certainly double the ingredients back up again!  This apple crisp recipe differs somewhat from most apple crisp desserts.  Most will have an incredibly sweet brown sugar, flour, butter, and oat topping.  The topping for this one is much more like a biscuit topping. It is almost more like a cobbler than it is a crisp.  But just like a crisp, it is a beautifully autumnal dessert that your family is sure to love.    It is perfect made with the fresh autumn apples which are available at present. But don't let that limit you!  It is also delicious ...
