These chocolate brownies are so quick and easy to make a child could do it.
They’re super, super chocolatey and go perfectly with some ice cream as a decadent dessert – provided you don’t eat the whole batch as soon as they’re out of the oven!
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a square 20cm baking tin with baking paper.
Put the butter and chocolate in a bowl and heat over a saucepan with a little water in to melt together, stirring continuously.
Step 2
Leave to cool slightly.
Step 3
Whisk the eggs and sugar together in a separate bowl until it turns pale and thickens slightly.
Step 4
Carefully fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.
Step 5
Sift the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder into the mixture and carefully fold together.
Step 6
Fold the nuts into the mixture.
Step 7
Pour the mixture into the baking tin.
Step 8
Bake for 25 minutes until a crust forms on top. The inside should remain gooey so you can test by inserting a knife.
When cooled slightly, remove from the baking tin.
Step 9
To finish, slice into 16 pieces, dust with icing sugar et voila!
