Every time I make a new batch of brownies I think "yes, this is it. These are the best brownies ever." It all started with the simple Chocolate Brownie, then I discovered Salted Caramel Brownies and from that point on no others could compete. Salted Caramel held the crown for a long time (Creme Egg and Cookie Dough did come quite close) until I stumbled across some Malteser spread in Asda one day and suddenly Salted Caramel was relegated to second place. I was adamant at that point I had created the best brownies ever until I noticed a jar of Cruchie spread. I wasn't sure if it would work - honeycomb is sweet anyway never mind mixing it with a tray of chocolate fuelled indulgence. But, it worked and it was blooming amazing!
Now I am in a quandry as to which brownies are the best and to be honest I really dont know. They are all amazing in their own right but what I have learned is how adaptable that little square of fudgey chocolatey goodness can be.
I don't need to ramble any more than that, I'll let the photos and recipe do the talking. All I will say is - you need to make these sharpish!
