If you’re stuck in a dilemma about how to cope with the chaos of Inauguration Day—whether to indulge in stress eating or pour yourself a hefty glass of wine—why choose? Now, you can have the best of both worlds with a delectable twist: red wine brownies. Yes, you heard that right!
In these trying times, we all need a little comfort, and what better way to find solace than with a batch of fudgy brownies infused with the rich flavor of red wine? The delightful recipe, crafted by the talented chef Jessica Lane, is perfect for anyone looking to add a little cheer to their day.
Just take a look at these masterpieces! Those are not just any brownies; they’re loaded with boozy goodness, complete with a touch of drunken cranberries. My brownies have never looked as enticing as these, and it’s clear that I’ve been missing out on that essential ingredient.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup red wine
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 stick butter (½ cup), plus extra for greasing
- 6 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate (I used a mix)
- 3 large eggs
- 1½ cups sugar
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Jessica assures that even novice bakers can succeed with this recipe, so don’t fret if you’re not a pro in the kitchen! While she mentions that trying it with a boxed brownie mix might be an option, I think you’ll find that nothing beats the homemade version. After all, chocolate and wine are both fabulous on their own, but together they become something extraordinary.
