As did the scores. Nobody else finds it suspicious that the first brownie he had got ranked the highest and the rest got lower? Yeah bro, because you didn't WANT to eat brownies anymore. I'm not even saying that Ghirardeli brownies aren't the best, but the scores got so much worse as he was clearly no longer enjoying himself.
@@joshp8535 Yeah, it would be interesting to do a repeat where he changes the order in which he tastes them. I imagine there would be a some very different rankings.
My family would only buy the cheap box mixes when I was little, so we have a bunch of tricks to improve them! Add a little more salt, a teaspoon of espresso powder, a cup of chocolate chips or chunks!
@@queencleopatra007 The way I do it, yes. You lose significant volume when browning the butter. I recommend starting with 25% more butter by volume so that you end up with an equivalent volume of brown butter to oil. Also, adding an extra egg yolk and using milk instead of water helps to up the fudge factor without pushing it too far
I wish you'd try the winner again at the end just to confirm it was still your favorite, since it was the first one. Seems like it might have benefited from going first
I was surprised that Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate mix wasn't part of the test but then I realized that it's only available in a 6-pack at wholesale stores like Costco and then was no longer surprised at its exclusion.
@@muffinman3052tbh, their chocolate chip cookies are my go-to too. I buy and add extra chips to get them perfect. You know, chocolate chips held together with just a little bit of cookie.
Honestly I tried to watch the video but he talks so slow, I put the video at 2x speed and he it still sounds normal. Still got frustrated and skipped to the end lol
By far my favourite Babish series. This is like if GMM’s gut check was done by someone who really knows food and is reliable and consistent with scoring. Amazing series
I have a trick to make any brownie mix turn out better: mix the egg and oil together until completely emulsified, then mix in the water, before adding to the dry mix. It makes such a difference to the texture, vs dumping it seperately into the dry mix and hoping it will distribute properly.
@@vastttyl8161 Soybean oil is a very cheap alternative to better oils and fats traditionally used in baking. It's also not very healthy for you. Absolutely do switch to sunflower or something else if you must use it for baking.
This could not be better timing! I'm planning on making brownies for my boyfriend's birthday, they're his favorite. THANK YOU for doing this research! My hero 🎉
I was a little bit hoping that Andrew would take another bite of the first brownie again at the end to see if his rating had changed after eating so many other brownies or if his 8.0 was spot on.
Ghirardelli brownies are my family's fave, hands down. However, I will be trying out the Betty Crocker Delights soon due to their high scores in this review.
Ghirardelli is the only one I’ve ever seen a real chef, any real chef (who always tells you to make your own because it’s better) compliment. Also, triple doesn’t refer to the type, but rather the quantity, I’m almost positive.
Double chocolate chip cookies are chocolate dough with chocolate chips. Triple chocolate cookies are chocolate dough with two kinds of chocolate chips. It's the amount of chocolate components, usually including the base batter or dough.
Ghirardelli triple chocolate is second to only their dark chocolate in my book and that's probably only because I like dark chocolate. One of the best brownie mixes out there.
I would LOVE a series where you taking a bargain boxed meal/dessert, and find ways to really enhance it. Does it just need some extra sugar and salt? Maybe you gotta put a lot of work into Hamburger Helper to make it an AMAZING meal. Maybe that Viola Frozen Meal just needs some more frozen vegetables and seasoning to really enhance a cheap meal.
Oh, so close. There is one (for some reason a little harder to find than the other) that is better. The Ghiradelli triple chocolate just gets you everywhere. They are a delight. Sorry you didn't have the chance to compare here.
I used to watch this channel to see bizarre movie/TV-inspired food creations. Now I watch it to see a grown man eat 20 pounds of brownie out of a frisbee.
As an avid brownie eater, and a little chunky myself, I’m proud to say that when I opt for a box instead of making it from scratch, I’ve also preferred the Ghirardelli’s dark chocolate brownie mix!
As far as I am aware Duncan Hines is the only one of these mixes that doesnt add milk powder. This means if you're lactose intolerant it'll hurt you less.
Ghirardelli are def the best. Make it with clarified butter instead of oil!!! Sometimes the preparation makes all the difference. Have the Ultimate Chocolate in our cabinet yet again for a reason. They're very chocolatey and chewy and amazing warm.
Ghiardelli Dark Chocolate is one of our favorites. Sometimes, we go for one of the others, but I forget which one. They are often on sale 2/$6 so we stock up. More than worth it and reasonable to keep in the pantry for $3.
I think he used to have a Bedtime with Babish channel where he read stories! Edit: it was actually podcast, and it's still available on Spotify and Apple Music!!
Can I get a follow up where Babish rates the Ghiradelli Triple Chocolate brownies that you can only buy in bulk from Costco? Maybe in a few years when he feels like eating brownies again?
The Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge is for people who eat brownies properly: still hot enough to give you a pizza bump. It's a celebration of the volatile chemicals that are all gone when you have something that will be a square in your lunchbox.
Ghirardelli use to make a Triple Fudge Brownie. They are my favorite brownie of all time. Not sure if they still make them or if they changed the name. The Dark Chocolate look exactly how they did but if I remember right they had dark chocolate syrup which was way better than their other chocolate syrup. It's possible they are the same product just the dark chocolate don't have the syrup. I'll have to try them next time I'm in the mood for brownie.
Thank you for this very useful data. The brownie I grew up eating was Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate (syrup, chips, and chunks) but I can never find it anymore. I’ve been buying the Ultimate Chocolate instead which is apparently worst Ghirardelli! Next time I’ll give dark chocolate a try 😄
My favorite brownie recipe : your personal favorite box mix, mixed up per instructions, before baking add your favorite mix ins (mine arehot fudge, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup & caramel syrup but add whatever you want)
Ok, take my advice on the Ghirardelli ultimate mix... If you take some creative liberty and use the included syrup as a swirl instead of incorporating it into the mix homogeneously it's actually BOMB. The textural difference makes it my favorite box brownie mix.
Kendall, you should've picked one of the brownies to sub out with re-making one of the brownies from his Basics episode, to see where he rated his own brownies without knowing. Or maybe only showed him the boxes at the end after he'd tested his own recipe 🤣
King Arthur's Gluten Free are by far the best ever. Even friends who eat gluten have said they are better than any others they have had. You must try them!! Add a little espresso powder to enhance the flavor 😍
Knew the first one was gonna be Ghiradelli dark chocolate because they looked exactly like the ones I make at home and it is my go to because I love dark chocolate!
Watching these ranking videos really highlights babish on script vs off script. On script he has this beautiful measured, paced, and cathartic dictation. Off script he is has a babbling, back and forth whimsicality approach. Two vastly different visages and I find that extremely fun.
I like these videos but I think there could be some added value by showing how to make superior homemade brownies after all the store bought mixes. Just my 2 cents.
This was very helpful because I am going to make boxed brownies this weekend and I have decided to buy the Ghiradelli dark chocolate (I love the Betty Crocker Delights Chocolate chunk but my store doesn't have them)
My mom used to make brownies all the time for events around town, she'd send them to the football team, take them to church bake sales, eventually they were famous enough for people to specifically request "Susie's Brownies" with great excitement. They were just a Betty Crocker mix, I think they used to have one just called "Supreme" but I think that eventually turned into the Supreme Triple Chunk. She always told people it was just a box mix but she couldn't convince people that she didn't have some special ingredient to add.
I don’t know what made me decide to try the Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate, I think because I prefer dark chocolate over milk chocolate, but they are by far my favorite brownie mix. I like a cake like brownie, so I follow the instructions on the box to make them cake like.
I do not like chocolate chips in my brownies, so my personal favorites are the Duncan Hines fudge brownies. Replace about half of the oil with peanut butter and you’re golden.
I tried your number one. You were right about it having the most chocolate flavor. However, my number one is still Ghiradhelli Double Chocolate with traditional milk chocolate as its base. Add some walnuts & it’s the perfect brownie. 👌🏼
I've been making the Ghiradelli dark chocolate for years, but spice it up with an extra egg, a pinch of salt, and replace the water with 1.5 times the amount of Port Wine for a little kick
i don't like having chocolate chips in my brownies because when they're cool i don't like running into hard chunks in my brownies. I also use butter instead of oil, mix in dark chocolate when I melt the butter to up the chocolate-ness, and sometimes a shot of espresso in with the liquid. I like both edges and center pieces but for different reasons, really i'd just like the whole pan to myself.
When I moved out on my own and started doing my own grocery shopping, I found the Ghirardelli Dark brownies and haven’t turned back. I have added flaky salt on top after baking or I’ve drizzled on salted caramel ice cream topping on before baking. Adding high quality chocolate chunks before baking is another great way to make them. They are great on their own and can easily be punched up. ❤
This was a fantastic spread of brownies! Our go to brownie mix is King Arthur gluten free, even though no one in our house is gluten intolerant. We do add chocolate chunks of our own though.
Notice how the bite size quickly shrinks as the realization of just how many brownies he is going to be tasting sets in.
He went from a bite to barely a nibble
I was actually wondering in the beginning if he was gonna be doing that or not. Even single bites the size of his first one is a tooon of brownie to eat.
As did the scores. Nobody else finds it suspicious that the first brownie he had got ranked the highest and the rest got lower?
Yeah bro, because you didn't WANT to eat brownies anymore. I'm not even saying that Ghirardeli brownies aren't the best, but the scores got so much worse as he was clearly no longer enjoying himself.
My first thought when looking at the number of boxes was I would be pacing myself.
@@joshp8535 Yeah, it would be interesting to do a repeat where he changes the order in which he tastes them. I imagine there would be a some very different rankings.
I could tell just by looking at the first one that it was a Ghirardelli mix. The big box at Costco is so worth it.
Yesss the triple chocolate one is my favorite.
Same. That Costco box does great service in my home
Agreed! We love that one. :)
I too, grew up on Costco Giardhelli brownies 💖💖💖💖
Zame, as soon as I saw that I knew exaclty which brand it was, they have my favorite brownie mix
should have had a homemade batch thrown in there too
Wanted to see this too to see how he would have rated it.
Or even trying to improve upon the Ghirardelli dark chocolate one that he ranked the best.
That would be a fun idea for the blind taste tests ranked videos!
Can you even imagine how high he'd rate Alvin's brownies?
Then it wouldn’t be a boxed brownie rating
My family would only buy the cheap box mixes when I was little, so we have a bunch of tricks to improve them! Add a little more salt, a teaspoon of espresso powder, a cup of chocolate chips or chunks!
mmmmmmm
im gonna do that next time too
Browned butter instead of oil.
@@garyadkins9496 I'm taking notes. Is the browned butter in the same amount as the oil would have been?
I want my brownies with black walnuts or pecans, chocolate chips, caramel chunks are nice too.
@@queencleopatra007 The way I do it, yes. You lose significant volume when browning the butter. I recommend starting with 25% more butter by volume so that you end up with an equivalent volume of brown butter to oil.

If I don't eat a brownie in the next 6 hours I'm going to die.
lol

felt
Did you die?
please answer, OP
I wish you'd try the winner again at the end just to confirm it was still your favorite, since it was the first one. Seems like it might have benefited from going first
I was hoping he would have roo
Probably by the end he was already on a sugar high
I think he should have had a break half way so he wasn’t overwhelmed.
I was surprised that Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate mix wasn't part of the test but then I realized that it's only available in a 6-pack at wholesale stores like Costco and then was no longer surprised at its exclusion.
The Ghirardelli Triple Chocolate is the One True Brownie. No substitutions are permitted. I will never go back
@@muffinman3052tbh, their chocolate chip cookies are my go-to too. I buy and add extra chips to get them perfect. You know, chocolate chips held together with just a little bit of cookie.
I get the Triple Chocolate at my local grocery store.
Just came here to say this. I’m appreciative of the gatekeeping , that way they don’t sell out 😉
It's also much worse than the double chocolate.

Shout out to Aldi brownie mix-my favorite! Ultra fudgey 😍 I bake them in a 13x9 so they’re way “shorter” and I think that helps with the texture!
the real brownie question is do you enjoy the edge pieces or center?
You either like the edge pieces, are lying, or are objectively wrong.
I enjoy edge pieces first. ...especially if i dont cut it.
edge and middle > than only edge or only middle.
edge me, brownie papa. wait, wat
Edge pieces - varied textures are my love language
Throw the edges in the trash, the middle is the only brownie that matters.
I love their brownie cuts. The symmetry and texture look amazing.
Loving this series! Liked that you did a blind test this time!
Feel like he would love the Ghirardelli triple chocolate brownie. Super fudgy with the ideal amount of chocolate chunks
Even before the video started, I was praying to see the triple chocolate mix! It’s deff my go-to for a solid decade, no other brownie mix compares.
Ghirardelli triple chocolate is second to only their dark chocolate in my book and that's probably only because I like dark chocolate. One of the best brownie mixes out there.
I think they may have discontinued the triple in at least some markets
Not trying the Dolly Parton Fabulously Fudgy Brownies is a crime, but you still ranked my second-fave highest so I'll forgive you.
... Is that a thing?
@@chlcrkDollys box mix brownies? Yes! And they’re actually better than any other box mix.

Update: there was no doubt
I dont know why I was expecting a blindfold...
Before I became gluten-intolerant, Ghiradellis were my go-to. Now I use King Arthur's Gluten Free Brownie Mix, and I think it might be even better.
Might I recommend Aldi’s GFree mix? They’re my personal favorite and I’m not gluten intolerant!

🤣 "YOU are the third chunk". love it
This was very helpful because I am going to make boxed brownies this weekend and I have decided to buy the Ghiradelli dark chocolate (I love the Betty Crocker Delights Chocolate chunk but my store doesn't have them)
I’d love to see you use the jiffy mix and see what you can add to improve it/how much it can be improved!

I used to be a fan of Duncan Hines, but they changed the recipe either last year or the year before, and now I despise them.
Which ones tasted great but weren’t the correct texture? Could it be adjusted to improve the texture to make it a winner?
Ghirardelli $5, where does he live, New York? 😆 And yes, Ghirardelli is always the winner for me. The only baked item I make from a mix every time!
I feel very validated. His top 2 ranked brownies are my 2 favorite boxed brownies. I typically go for Betty Crocker Triple Chunk though.

My partner and I did a similar taste taste, and also found the same brownie to be our favorite. I feel validated!
I've eaten so much Jiffy cornbread, but I didn't know about Jiffy fudge. I think Jiffy also makes pizza crust and a few other things.
1:50 in and my brownie favorite is an 8.0. 🖤
i don't like having chocolate chips in my brownies because when they're cool i don't like running into hard chunks in my brownies.

Ghirardelli brownies will always be my go-to! I substitute milk for the water and add an extra egg yolk for utterly irresistible!
What if you tried cake mixes?
what about the salted caramel brownie from betty crocker?
Had to stop at 3:00. Do not watch while fasting.
Gheredeliaie Carmel brownies are the best
14:40 wherein Not-Babish discovers "price per ounce".
Love brownies! Cookies next please 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Yeah, maybe the cake mix hack cookie.
The one thing that every brownie needs is a glass of milk.
Or vanilla ice cream 😋
I definitely recommend the Ghiradelli mix. It´s so fudgy!
Next time I make brownies, I'm gonna try to add a bit of salt, see how it turns out.
i just used salted butter when making them, was a bit too salty.
recommend for people who eat lots of instant noodles and crisps
I just like to liberally grease the pan with salted butter. Gives the crust a buttery, slightly salty/caramelized texture.
When I moved out on my own and started doing my own grocery shopping, I found the Ghirardelli Dark brownies and haven’t turned back. I have added flaky salt on top after baking or I’ve drizzled on salted caramel ice cream topping on before baking. Adding high quality chocolate chunks before baking is another great way to make them. They are great on their own and can easily be punched up. ❤
Bob's Red Mill is hands down the best brownie mix you can buy.
