Fudgy M&M Brownies

Teresa Ambra

Fudgy M&M Brownies are absolutely the best! These heavenly brownies are filled with M&Ms and then have a lovely chocolate glaze on top. Top these dense, fudgy brownies with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce and you have a dessert that’s divine! It’s certainly terrific for holidays like Valentine’s Day or Christmas baking. But it’s also a great recipe for tailgating parties and potlucks.

Last month our church secretary gave me a call and asked if I would make some desserts to serve 48 people. I love making dessert so that was a no-brainer for me. She requested brownies so I made a Tollhouse Brownie, a German Chocolate Brownie and these delicious brownies. Each one of the turned out fantastic. But these Fudgy M&M Brownies were so rich, dense and chocolaty–just the way you want a brownie. They were not in the least cake-like.

I don’t know about you but when I want to eat brownies, I don’t want to eat cake! I’m not looking for a fluffy, airy texture. I want thick, dense and a chocolate overload. Yes, these brownies have it all. They are so mouthwatering you will be drooling over every bite.

If you’re looking for something different and tired of your standard go-to recipes, then give Fudgy M&M Brownies a try. They will certainly satisfy every sweet tooth craving you have. I guarantee you won’t want to stop at just one! And don’t forget to add the ice cream and chocolate sauce. After all, you can never have too much chocolate. 🙂

Here’s what I did.

I used these ingredients for the brownie layer. Even though the brownies look like I used a dark roast chocolate, I only used regular cocoa.
