125 g

125 g

eggs (lightly whisked)

3 piece

white sugar

335 g

115 g

1 pinch

Instructions

Preheat oven and prepare pan

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 20cm square cake pan and line with baking paper.

5 min180°C

Use a metal baking pan for best results - it conducts heat better than glass or ceramic

Melt butter and chocolate

Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth.

5 minLow heat

Don't let the bowl touch the water - this prevents overheating the chocolate

Combine wet and dry ingredients

Remove from heat and quickly stir in eggs, sugar, flour, cocoa powder, vanilla extract and salt until just combined.

2 min

Mix just until combined - overmixing will result in cakey brownies instead of fudgy ones

Bake the brownies

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs clinging.

30 min180°Ctimer 30 min

For extra gooey brownies, bake slightly less than 30 minutes. For firmer brownies, bake an extra 2-3 minutes

Cool completely

Remove from oven and set aside to cool completely in the pan before cutting.

60 min

Do not cut brownies too early - they need to set completely to avoid falling apart
