  • Fudge-Studded Chocolate Cookie Brownie Bars

    Fudge-Stuffed Chocolate Cookie Brownie Bars

    March 9th, 2013

    This recipe isn’t for the faint of heart. But you didn’t come to this site without a serious sugar and chocolate addiction, though, did you?  Welcome, my friend. So picture this: a bottom layer of The World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie, followed by a layer of the Ultimate Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie with chunks of Bittersweet […]

  • Rocky Road Brownie Pie

    Rocky Road Brownie Pie

    February 2nd, 2013

    Is this Rocky Road Brownie concoction a pie or a cake?  Or just a massive brownie with a crapload of fantastic chocolate candy on top? I don’t think I’m asking the right questions. The real questions are: Why haven’t I made this before?  And… How was I able to live my life without this dessert […]

  • World's Greatest Fudge Brownie Cookies

    The W.G.F. Brownie Cookie

    January 1st, 2013

      This is going to blow-yo-mind. (Well, at least it blew my mind.  And I have strong reason to suggest that as a fellow lover of all things sweets, it will do the same to you.) So you take the World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie, and you cookie-ify it. Done. I don’t even need to say […]

  • Coconut Macaroon Fudge Brownies

    August 8th, 2012

    Yes, you are correct- you are seeing a coconut macaroon baked right into the warm, loving arms of The World’s Greatest Fudge Brownie. It’s not a mirage. It’s a dream, a heavenly dream, and you can bake it so your dream can come true.

    (If you’re looking for the dessert that’s the next big hit at your bake sale or dinner party or work function or night alone when you want to binge and feel ill but strangely fulfilled, I insist that you make this dessert. Think about it- macaroons go first at every sweets table [always shocks me, but it’s so true], and brownies are a close second. Why not meld the two together?)

  • Mint Chocolate Ganache Fudge Brownie

    Mint Chocolate Ganache Covered Fudge Brownies

    June 13th, 2012

    Yes, it’s exactly as marvelous as it sounds. You take the World’s Best Fudge Brownie, and then you drape it with a thick blanket of bittersweet chocolate ganache that’s infused with rich, cooling mint. You then let it set just long enough to slice, and then you dig on in… allowing some of the excess ganache (and there will be excess if you’ve poured it on in excessively excessive excess quantity, as instructed) to ooze over the edge of your perfectly cut confection. I am a firm believer that any kind of dessert that oozes is a keeper. So slather the ganache on top of a bare, innocent batch of brownies, and keep this one all to yourself.

  • Bailey’s Irish Cream Fudge Brownies

    March 11th, 2012

    So here’s how this one is going to go down- take the World’s Best Fudge Brownies (your staple brownie, your go-to, your bingeworthy crutch of a recipe) and make it suitable for St. Patrick by adding Irish Cream in three separate stages:

    1. In the batter- naturally. That one was obvious.

    2. Brushed over the brownie just before taking it out of the oven… so it seeps in and infuses the crust with its Irish Creamy goodness.

    3. In a glaze drizzled over the top of the finished and cooled fudgy splendor of a dessert.

    Despite the triple threat of Irish Cream, it’s strangely not overwhelming. Some might say they don’t even recognize the flavor- they’ll just wonder why the brownies are so darned good. In a St. Patty’s kind of way. Cheers…

  • One of the Top 10 desserts, as voted by The Husband

    World’s Greatest Fudge Brownies

    February 1st, 2012

    It’s a big world out there. Stop the search- you’ve found The Bingeworthy Brownie.

    This is the brownie you’ve been waiting for.

    It’s fudgy, chewy, rich, dense, and sweet (but not cloyingly so, despite an admittedly profane amount of sugar).
    Although the epitome if what a fudgy brownie should be (ooey and gooey without sticking to the teeth), it’s still somehow appealing to the “I prefer a cakier brownie” type. (More Sweets Please rule of thumb- if you like a totally cakey brownie, you don’t like brownies. You like chocolate cake. Which is okay, but you must know that a fluffy brownie is a blasphemous brownie.)
