Trader Joe's Tuesday: Truffle Brownie Mix
Amy Faries • March 3, 2020
Delicious rich brownies filled with chunks of gooey melted chocolate.
Guess what...I hate chocolate
As most of you know I am not really a fan or chocolate. You are probably asking " Ummm then why do you make things with chocolate in them?" Well, since you asked, I do this all for you! I know the majority of people on this planet love chocolate and think I am a crazy person for not liking it. With that said I want to make sure I encompass all things within the baking world, even if its something I don't particularly favor. One thing I do love is to look at pictures of brownies. Weird right? I can really appreciate a delicious fudgy looking brownie with puddles of melted chocolate on and within. I've said this before and I will say it until the day I die, I am obsessed with the texture and consistency of things. So if something looks delicious then my head automatically thinks it must be delicious, even if I know I hate it. The magic of food, am I right?
Rich and Chocolaty
With all that said these brownies not only looked great, which pleases me, they tasted amazing! I literally just told all of you how much I hate chocolate I know, but I can definitely appreciate things with chocolate in them. For instance two peas and their pod have the most amazing chocolate banana bread ever! I definitely have to chug a cup of water after I eat anything with chocolate (I have done this since I was younger to get the taste of chocolate out of my mouth). But, I cant deny when something is good! These brownie are just that good. Simple to make, as with everything Trader Joe's offers and yet still satisfies. The chocolate chips mixed in the batter really adds extra flavor and of course gives a great texture. The back of the box also has instructions on how to make chewy chocolate chip cookies using this mix as well. I love that you have options with many of TJ's baking mixes.
