Chocolate Brownies
Ingredients
- 5oz unsalted butter
- 8oz good plain chocolate
- 8oz golden caster sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- 3oz plain flour
We have our good friend Mike to thank for this recipe. He has a coffee shop in Glasgow, and keeps his clientele well fed with the best chocolate brownie we've ever tasted. It's also very easy to make, but be warned: once you've tasted your own you'll be spoiled for life!
Instructions
You'll beed a 7" square tin, buttered and lined with baking paper.
-
Preheat your oven to 180C / 350F / GM 4
-
Melt the butter and chocolate in a bowl over gently simmering water.
-
Allow to cool slightly then whisk in the sugar and vanilla extract, then the eggs one at a time.
-
Add flour and beat until smooth.
-
Pour into tin and bake for 40 minutes or so.
This is lovely cold with a cup of coffee, or warm with cream or ice-cream.
