Happy Friday! Now the Christmas reviews are done and dusted, I can bring you the non-festive foods I have been sampling this last few weeks; one of which is this fudge brownie dessert from Tesco - a treat from my wife, for braving the shops with her.
The 130g single serve pot cost, which is pretty standard for this kind of dessert. This isn't one for you veggies, as it contains gelatine.
"Layers of fudge sauce, chocolate and fudge flavour mousses, chocolate brownie pieces and chocolate coated fudge", in all honesty, it had me interested at "chocolate".
The layers reminded me a little of a trifle, with the brownie pieces, mousse and sauce all layered upon each other. It certainly looked scrummy and the smell of the brownies hit me as soon as I peeled back the film lid. I was pleasantly suprised by the amount of pieces adorning the top of the dessert, as normally this kind of thing tends to be decorated with only a few chocolate flakes.
The dessert is absolutely delicious! The brownie pieces are really chocolatey and rich, as a brownie should be; they manage to retain that moist texture and are perfectly dense. I loved the mousse, it was light and tasted delicious. I couldn't distinguish between the fudge and chocolate flavours as they merged together, but this didn't matter in the slightest.
The sauce layer was more like a dark chocolate and tasted beautiful; it also added a nice gooey element to the pudding, with an almost ganache like texture; think McDonalds' hot fudge sundae (bit of a throw back there) The textures and flavours were just amazing together, making for very indulgent pud!
For £1, you really can not go wrong with this dessert, it's a chocoholics dream and makes a nice change from the chocolate or strawberry sundae dessert pots. For those of you who prefer toffee, Tesco also have a new sticky toffee pudding dessert too.
