Fudgy Cranberry Orange Brownies
These are not your regular brownies… Don’t be fooled by the name.
Just imagine tiny morsels of chocolate and fudge, candied orange peel, walnuts and cranberries, then topped with a decadent chocolate icing.
Doesn’t that sound amazing?
Making it is easy and is definitely a crowd pleaser since these brownies are not ultra sweet and each bite is way different than the other.
The texture is ooey gooey, with some chewiness from the orange and cranberries, and crunchy from the walnuts.
If you’re thinking of baking for the Holidays, I recommend adding these Cranberry Orange Brownies to your to-do list.
Honestly, I had a hard time naming it because they are basically a hybrid between a baked fudge and a brownie. Frownie and Brudgy came to mind but they sounded really ugly 🙂
Let me show you how this recipe is made:
I first mix all my brownie batter ingredients and place it on a greased rectangular pan.
Then I make my tangy fudge batter using a can of delicious LA LECHERA® condensed milk.
Good news! Head on over HERE to print out your $.75 off coupon when you purchase two LA LECHERA® products at Publix from 11/16/18-12/16/18.
When my fudge is all mixed up. I pour it over the brownie batter.
A little swirls with the knife will guarantee that the 2 mixes come together
Finally, I bake, cool, and frost.
It doesn’t get any easier than that.
All the ingredients for this recipe were purchased at Publix, now that the Holiday season is here you can even find the candied orange peel pieces in the baking section.
Of all the desserts ingredients I have on a pantry LA LECHERA® condensed milk is a staple. I love their unique flavor and its easy of use.
For me, is so versatile since I can use it for fudge, brigadeiros, flan, and even chocolate birthday icing. If you’re serving donuts and fruits, get the LA LECHERA condensed milk in a squeeze bottle for easy of use.
