wickedly
In sinister fashion
Wickedly means in an evil or morally wrong way: The villain laughed wickedly.
More often, it's used as an intensifier suggesting something impressively extreme or pleasurably transgressive: wickedly funny, wickedly sharp, a wickedly good chocolate cake.
The intensifying sense carries a hint of delicious misbehavior rather than genuine malice.
