RECIPE: I made brownies!

 

Sunday, me and my wife suddenly had the baking vibe. What to bake? We can't go out (self-isolation) so we browsed the internet, browsed the cupboard and decided to make...brownies.

I used this recipe from BBC:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/richchocolatebrownie_1933 

I'm quite lazy, don't like doing too many things, so needed to find something 'easy!' Alhamdulillah, we had the required ingredients at home. 

My wife made sure I done the majority things myself! Alhamdulillah followed the recipe, with a few changes here and there. 

Ingredients

  • 225g/8oz butter (preferably unsalted)
  • 450g/1lb caster sugar (mixed golden caster as I didn't have enough of the white caster sugar!)
  • 140g/5oz dark chocolate, broken into pieces (I had a bit of dark chocolate and some milk chocolate so mixed it together!)
  • 5 free-range medium eggs
  • 110g/4oz plain flour
  • 55g/2oz cocoa powder

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Line a 20x30cm/8x12in baking tin with baking paper.

  2. Gently melt the butter and the sugar together in a large pan. Once melted, take off the heat and add the chocolate. Stir until melted.

  3. Beat in the eggs, then stir in the flour and the cocoa powder.

  4. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared tin and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top of the brownie is just firm but there is still a gentle wobble in the middle.

  5. Take out of the oven and leave to cool in the tin. Cut the brownies into 5cm/2in squares when only just warm, or completely cool.
