Classic Chocolate Brownie Recipe
Makes: 48
Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 50 mins
Ingredients
250g unsalted butter, chopped
- 250g dark chocolate, chopped (Nestle Plaistowe is fine)
- 6 eggs
- 550g (2 ½ cups) caster sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- 225g (1 ½ cup) plain flour
- 60g (1/2 cup) Dutch cocoa powder
Method
- Preheat the oven to 150C (conventional – top and bottom heat). Line a lamington pan (we used a 38cm x 26cm) rectangular cake tin with baking paper.
- Melt butter and chocolate in a medium-sized pot on induction, power on level 3 stirring occasionally and mix to incorporate.
- In the meantime, in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and a medium bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt until pale and fluffy.
- Sift cocoa powder and flour into a separate bowl.
- With the machine still operating at slow speed, add the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture then incorporate the flour and cocoa powder mixture.
- Pour it into the prepared cake pan and then bake on the middle shelf for 50 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely then transfer to the fridge. It is easier to portion when the brownie is fridge cold and it will also give you a cleaner cut.
- Cut into squares 8 x 6 to make 48 portions.
