A glass of full-bodied <a href="https://groceries.asda.com/product/all-other-grapes/blossom-hill-red-wine/910002666170" target="_blank">red wine</a> on a winter's evening is a lovely thing. A <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/the-ultimate-chocolate-brownie" target="_blank">sticky chocolate brownie</a> still hot from the oven is a wonderful thing. Which does rather beg the question, why haven't we ever tried trying to combine the two? Well, finally, someone decided to give it a go and they may just have created the ultimate winter dessert.Inspired by the viral success of the <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/article/red-wine-hot-chocolate">red wine hot chocolate recipes</a>, food blogger Lillie of <a href="http://buttermeupbrooklyn.com/2012/03/red-wine-chocolate-fudge-brownies/" target="_blank">Butter Me Up Brooklyn</a> decided to see what happened when a little leftover red wine was poured into a brownie mix - and found it worked rather well. So, next time you find yourself with a little red wine left over, Lillie suggests you just 'shake that bottle for every last drop and bake your little bit of wine into a pan of deep, rich, and fudgy chocolate brownies.'<a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/Red-wine-brownie-recipe" target="_blank"><img alt="the-ultimate-chocolate-brownie__hero__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/the-ultimate-chocolate-brownie__hero__square_GL?scl=1"></a>We certainly don't need to be asked twice so we decided to create our own <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/Red-wine-brownie-recipe" target="_blank">indulgent recipe</a> which is exactly how you'd create your brownie mixture normally, but with a glug of tasty red wine. To make this <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/Red-wine-brownie-recipe" target="_blank">wonderful creation</a>, you'll need to melt chocolate and butter in a heatproof mixing bowl over a pan of boiling water, then mix in the wine, followed by the sugar, flour, eggs, vanilla and coffee.Stir until evenly combined, then pour into a greaseproof tin and cook for 30-40mins until a light crust has formed. We've then dusted our brownies with a little-added icing sugar. So if you're in need of a little winter warmth of an evening, why not give these grown-up boozy brownies a try? They're ready in 50 minutes - just try not to eat the whole lot in one go. Stock up on all your baking ingredients - and red wine - at <a href="http://www.asda.com/" target="_blank">Asda.com</a> or at your <a href="http://storelocator.asda.com/#!/" target="_blank">local Asda store</a>.
