A little break from property for Sunday baking.
One thing I’m always trying to stay on top of is the boys’ lunchboxes, so I thought I’d start sharing what we’re making each week.
Nothing fancy — just things the kids will actually eat. 😂
This week: Brownie
Ingredients
3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter
113g semi-sweet chocolate, divided
1 and 2/3 cups (333g) caster sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup (84g) cocoa powder (not home brand or woolworths brand)
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (180g) chocolate chips
Method
Preheat oven to 180°C and line a 9-inch square baking tin
Melt butter and half the chopped chocolate (56g) in 30-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Beat eggs and sugar for about 3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
Add the melted chocolate mixture and vanilla. Mix to combine.
Sift in flour and cocoa, add salt, then mix gently. Fold through the remaining chopped chocolate and chocolate chips.
Spread into the prepared tin and bake for 28–32 minutes, do not over cook, even if it seems runny
Cool completely, then slice into squares.
Thanks Sallys Home Baking for this recipe, it works everytime.
