Finally, The ULTIMATE Brownie winning recipe!

I'm sad to say that the brownie competition is now finished.
Yes, I'm sad! Now what can I tell my hubby when I want to make brownies. The "I'm doing it for the blog" excuse is no longer legit.
We got some amazing recipes, from fudgy chocolate goodness, peanut butter and chocolate bliss, nuts, caramel. . . mmmm, my mouth is watering.

We judged the brownies on taste, obviously, as well as convenience. I love a good brownie recipe but no matter how tasty it is it has to be easy or it never makes it out of the recipe box.

Disclaimer: My lack of pictures of all of our yummies can be blamed on sheer chocolatey deliciousness.

Luckily I did get pics of our winning brownie.

The winning recipe is chocolatey, but not too much. Moist, creamy, nutty, unique, and super easy to make.  In one word : droolicious!

Thank you to everyone who participated! Every batch of brownies was REALLY good! And if you ever feel like sending me more brownie recipes I will gladly take them and try them out!  ;)



Print this out, share it with your friends and let me know what you think of our ultimate brownie recipe!

ULTIMATE Brownie Challenge !!

I am a self diagnosed (and self medicated) CHOCOHOLIC.

I've known this truth for sometime now. I tell my husband that my chocolate "problem"  is a side effect from having my kids. Pregnancy does things to you.

I don't have a stop button when it comes to chocolate. Especially choco-licious BROWNIES with rich gooey frosting! {drool}

I know there are more people like me out there. People that enjoy a decadent, ooey-gooey, fudgy, oh-so-chocolatey brownie treat.  So I've decided to petition all of you for your most mouth-watering recipies to join the :

ULTIMATE BROWNIE CHALLENGE

Here's how it's going to work.

Basically your only job is to send me your most scrumptious brownie recipe.
Email the recipes to me at CantaloupeCorner(at!)gmail.com

I will personally bake and taste each recipe, (as long as it isn't made with crazy, or hard-to-find ingredients). And if I get too many recipes I might have to recruit other chocolate baker/tasters for help. Volunteers?

The most delicious brownie wins. Easy as pie! uh, I mean brownies!

(I'm not putting a time frame on this challenge yet but I'll post a close date after later when I know how many recipies I'm going to be making. )

The winning recipe will be posted on our blog after the challenge is finished. YAY! So all of you can make the yummiest brownies!

And what will the prize be? 

a $50 Cantaloupe Corner gift certificate!

So hurry! Don't dilly-dally!
Help a struggling Chocoholic.

Thanks and good luck! I hope you win!
