TRIPLE CHOC BROWNIES

I’ve been making this recipe for nearly 30 years (yes I’m THAT old!), it never fails me and never lasts more than an afternoon in my home.

Not a single healthy thing about these brownies but they’re good for the soul. Sometimes we all need to indulge, enjoy!

Here’s what you need…

125g softened butter.

½ cup castor sugar.

2 eggs lightly beaten.

100g chopped milk chocolate.

150g chopped white chocolate.

200g chopped dark chocolate.

1+1/4 cups plain sifter flour.

Handful of halved macadamia nuts (leave them out if nuts are an issue).

Let’s make this…

Pre heat your oven to 180/200 degrees. Line your favourite slice tray (around 20cm).

Combine chopped butter, sugar, milk and dark chocolate in a saucepan and over a gentle heat stir until melted.

Stir constantly until you have a smooth glossy finish. Remove from heat and allow to cool a little.

In a mixing bowl add sifted flour, white and chocolate and eggs; fold them together then add cooled chocolate/butter/sugar.

Throw in the nuts and fold gently.

Pour into prepared tin. Spread evenly using a butter knife and pop into your oven. Bake for approximately 35 minutes or until you see the sides pull away from tin a little.

The centre will keep cooking once removed from oven but don’t take it out if it’s too gooey…give it a little longer. Let cool in pan and then cut into squares.

*Wanna boost your brownies?…add raspberries!

*TIP- dust with icing sugar before serving. Cut into small squares and layer with raspberry coulis, cream and ice cream in a martini glass, top with fresh raspberries or blueberries for a delightfully wicked little dessert. Try using the cut edges as they have a little extra chewy/crunch to them.

Me…I just add a dollop of cream!

Go on , you know you want to try these…they’re pretty awesome!

What’s your favourite thing to add to brownies?

Til next time,
