Ingredients

Judy's chocolate brownies
  • 150 gram butter
  • 220 gram good-quality dark chocolate
  • 1 1/4 cup (275g) caster sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 eggs, beaten lightly
  • 1 cup (150g) plain flour, sifted
  • 90 gram macadamia or pecans
  • icing sugar, to serve

Method

Judy's chocolate brownies
  • 1
    Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease a 25cm square cake pan.
  • 2
    Melt butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Remove from heat, then stir in sugar, vanilla, eggs, flour and nuts until just combined.
  • 3
    Pour mixture into prepared pan; bake for 25-30 minutes or until set. Do not overcook; the top should be soft to touch and brownies will firm as they cool, but they should be moist and fudge-like.
  • 4
    Cool in pan. Served dusted with icing sugar.

Notes

Butter and chocolate suitable to microwave.
