Brownies! you cant beat them!

• Hey Everyone,

This week I made some brownies, everyone loves brownies and their really easy to make once you have all the ingredients, you don't have to get expensive ingredients, you could probably buy it all for under 15 euro. So if its raining outside and you decide your not going into college at lease do something productive and make brownies for your house mates!!

• Ingredients
• 450g  Butter
• 790g milk chocolate (or 100g less if you think your over doing it)
• 170g dark chocolate
• 6 extra-large eggs
• 2 tbsp pure vanilla essence
• 315g caster sugar
• 175g plain flour

1 tbsp baking powder

• 1 tsp salt
• 360g chopped pecan nuts - Or leave them out if your not a nut fan!
• Method

1) Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/Gas 4. 

2) Butter a baking try, the smaller the tray the deeper the brownies so use your own preference

3) Melt together the butter, 450g of chocolate, and the dark chocolate in a bowl (do this by placing the bowl over simmering water) or put it in the microwave to melt but keep an eye on it in case it burns!! Allow to cool slightly.

 In another bowl, stir together the eggs, vanilla, and sugar. Stir the warm chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and allow to cool to room temperature. 

4) In another bowl,(you need a few bowls) sift together 140g of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Add to the cooled chocolate mixture. Toss the pecan nuts (if using) or some extra chocolate chips chocolate, then add them to the chocolate batter. Pour into the baking tray. 

5) bake for about 35 - 40 mins, depending on how you like them, well done or squishy. Do not overbake! Allow to cool thoroughly, and cut into 20 large squares.

Enjoy people!
