Granary Foodstore Chocolate Brownies

I get asked for recipes all the time but this one is by far the most requested…

You will need a 37 x 26 cm deep baking tin lined with tin foil

Ingredients:

For the Brownie

• 24oz or 680g of Butter
• 24oz or 680g of Dark Chocolate (55%)
• 8 eggs
• 24oz or 680g Caster Sugar
• 12oz or 340g of Plain Flour

For the Icing

• 16oz or 453g of dark chocolate (55%)
• 2oz or 318g of butter

Method:

• Pre-heat your oven to 190 C
• Slowly melt the chocolate & butter together in a pyrex bowl over boiling water or in the microwave
• Whisk the eggs and sugar together until the mixture is thick enough to make a figure of eight with a spoon
• Fold the chocolate & butter mixture into the egg mixture
• Fold in the sieved flour
• Pour this mixture into your lined tin
• Bake in the oven for 40 to 45 mins until set in the middle
• While the brownie is baking, make the icing by melting the chocolate and butter together in the microwave or in a pyrex bowl over boiling water – leave to cool
• When ready take the brownie out of the oven and leave to cool
• Take the cooled brownie out of the tin and carefully spread the icing over the brownie with a pallet knife
• In the granary we drizzle melted white chocolate over the finished brownie but this step is up to you!
