BROWNIES AND BARS, CHOCOLATE DELIGHTS
CHOCOLATE BROWNIE

INGREDIENTS:
100 g – unsalted butter
1/4 cup – dark chocolate, chopped
1 1/4 cups – white sugar
1/2 cup – unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp. – pure vanilla extract
2 – eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup – all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. – baking soda
1/4 tsp. – salt
1/4 cup – buttermilk
PREPARATION:
- Preheat the oven at 180 degree C. Line the bottom and sides of an 8 inch square pan with aluminium foil with over hangings about 2 inches over the sides of the pan to make it easy to lift the brownies from the pan.
- In a small sauce pan or in a microwave melt the butter and chocolate. Remove from heat and pour this to a large bowl. Whisk in the sugar and cocoa powder until mixed. Whisk in the vanilla and eggs, one at a time mixing until the batter is nice and shiny.
- Gradually whisk the sifted flour, baking soda and salt. Finally mix in the buttermilk. Pour into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 28-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center has moist crumbs.
- Place on a wire rack to cool to room temperature and serve with ice cream, whipped cream or chocolate ganache.
