The Best Chocolate Brownie Recipe Ever

by Sarah Creagh Horth on August 1, 2009

So you’ve got the gals coming over for a post-breakup bitch session.  You need brownies!  The gals are great friends and they need to be fed.

Try this recipe out – it makes the most perfect, delicious, amazing, fantastic brownies, that are so rich that just a couple will be enough for any chocolate head and so EASY anyone can make them, even if you’ve never really baked much before.

It is a recipe a friend sent me, it makes a big batch of rich chocoholic brownies to die for.  You can freeze them if any are left over (just kidding – as if you’ll have leftovers!).

Best breakup chocolate brownies ever

100g or 3/4 cup Cocoa
200g or 3 1/2 oz Butter, melted
400g or 2 cups caster sugar/baker’s sugar
4 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
90g Flour or just under 3/4 cup
1 tsp Baking powder
200g or 7 oz Dark Chocolate Chips

1) Sift cocoa into a large mixing bowl
2) Add melted butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla
3) Mix to a smooth paste
4) Sift in flour and baking powder and then add chocolate chips
5) Pour into a 20cm x 30cm greased baking dish
6) Bake in a preheated oven at 150 Celsius or 300 Fahrenheit for 65 minutes

The mixture should feel a little undercooked – and depending on your oven you might want to take them out earlier for a softer brownie. I take them out at about 50 minutes.  You should keep an eye on them if you use a fan oven as you don’t want to dry them out. I use a brownie pan like this, they end up nice and thick.

You are meant to slice when completely cooled, but they taste pretty damn fine hot.
