My husband is constantly asking for me to make chocolate brownies... Ive tried a few recipes but apparently they werent 'perfect' they were good....but not perfect! While I was away one weekend, my girlfriend and her husband went to my house and had dinner with Lewis, and she brought over chocolate brownies...dare I say it...from the PACKET!!! Donna Hay ones! I know they probably taste AMAZING but.. to me, thats cheating!!! Lewis said they were the best he has had...So I went searching for the best recipe I could find.....NOT from a packet!!
Here it is!!!!
375g unsalted butter
375g best quality dark chocolate **dont be cheap! Buy the best 70% cocoa!
6 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla essence
500g caster sugar
225g plain flour
1 teaspoon salt
300g chopped walnuts
1. Preheat oven at 180'C. Line your brownie tray with baking paper.
2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a large pan.
3. In a bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar and vanilla. Measure the flour into another bowl and add salt.
4. When chocolate mixture has melted, let it cool a bit before beating in the eggs and sugar and then ad the nuts and flour. Beat to combine smoothly and then scrape out of the saucepain into the baking tray.
5. Bake for about 25 minutes. When its ready, the top should be dried to a paler brown speckle, but the middle still dakr and dense and gooey.
**dont forget they will continue to cook slightly when out of the oven cooling.
There you have it! The yummiest brownies ever!!!
** add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious dessert!
