Course: Easy Baking
Cuisine: British
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 9 large brownies

Ingredients

  • 225 g (1 cups) caster sugar
  • 3 (3) eggs
  • 225 g (1 cups) butter
  • 225 g (1 ⅕ cups) dark chocolate
  • 100 g ( lb) plain flour
  • 100 g (1 cups) cocoa powder
  • 175 g (6 ⅙ oz) Nutoka, Nutella spread

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 160ºC and line a 23cm (9 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Get yourself 3 bowls. Yes, I know this recipe said easy and it really is. Go with me here.
  •    In bowl 1 (a medium bowl that fits snugly over a pan) place the butter and chocolate.
  •    For bowl 2 (a small bowl) whisk the plain flour and cocoa powder
  •    Then, in bowl 3 (a large-ish bowl) place the eggs and sugar
  • Place bowl 1 (the butter and chocolate over a pan of simmering water. Let the chocolate and butter melt together and whisk well so that they are fully incorporated.
  • While the chocolate and butter are melting, use an electric hand whisk to whip the eggs and sugar. This will take a good few minutes. We want the eggs and sugar mixture to be almost as thick as mayonnaise. (See the above photo.)
  •  Once the eggs and sugar are whipped and the chocolate is melted, slowly pour the chocolate into the egg mixture and whisk (not an electric whisk a regular one) to blend together. Add the flour and cocoa to the bowl and whisk again.
  • Pour the mixture (you may need to spoon it in. It'll be THICKKKK) into a 9x9 (23cm) square tin lined with baking paper. Dollop the Nutoka spread on top of the brownie mix. Use a hot knife or a toothpick to swirl the spread into the brownie.
  • Bake in a 160ºC oven for about 30 minutes. The top should feel (and look set) but the brownies should still wobble slightly when you wiggle the pan.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • *160ºC may seem like a low temperature to bake the brownies at, but it's the low temperature that gives the brownies their amazing fudgy texture.
  • I cut these into 9 large brownies, but you can easily make them smaller and cut into 12
  • No nutrition info on giant brownies! House rules. :)
