Ingredients
200g 70% dark chocolate, broken into small pieces
175g unsalted butter, chopped into small pieces
325g caster (superfine) sugar
130g plain/cake flour or ground almonds
3 eggs, lightly whisked
Optional to finish
3 tablespoons icing sugar
vanilla ice cream
Method
Ideally, make this recipe the day before needed.
Line a 20cm x 20cm brownie tin with greaseproof paper.
In a bowl over boiling water, melt the chopped chocolate and butter, stirring occasionally.
Remove the bowl with oven gloves and be careful of the steam.
Stir the sugar into the chocolate and butter mixture.
Then add in the flour or ground almonds and stir until incorporated.
Finally, add in the eggs and stir until you have a lovely smooth chocolatey mixture.
Pour the mixture into the lined tin.
Bake at 170°C for 20-25 minutes until the top forms a light crust.
At minute 20, wobble the tray, if it is still liquid bake for an additional 5 minutes and repeat once more if needed.
Stay close to the oven so your brownies do not overbake.
Let the brownies cool in the tin, once cooled, wrap tightly in cling film and ideally refrigerate overnight.
Using a long straight-edged knife, cut the brownies into small squares, they are rich. Sprinkle with icing sugar if desired, and serve with vanilla ice cream
