(Same quantity)
Makes 20 chewie chocolate & heavenly hazelnut, beautiful brownies!.......Mmmmmmmmmmm......*
Preheat the oven to 180'C/350'F/Gas4. Grease a 20 x 30cm/8 x 12in baking tin with margarine and line the base with non-stick baking parchment.
Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a large heatproof bowl. Rest the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, makeing sure the bottom of the bowl is not touching the water. Stir from time to time until the chocolate has melted. Add the margarine to the bowl and continue stirring occasionally until it is completely melted and mixed in with the chocolate.
Remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the sugar, followed by the beaten eggs and vanilla essence. Stir to mix well, then sift the flours and baking powder into the bowl and carfully fold in with a metal spoon, making sure the mixture is thoroughly combined but not stirred too heavily, or the air will be lost. Fold in the nuts.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin, spreading it evenly into the corners with the back of the spoon. Bake in the hot oven for 12-15mins until risen and firm to touch and a skewer inserted in the sentre has just got some mixture sticking to it. Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 5mins, then transfer to a wire rack & leave to cool completely. Cut into 20 squares.
* Try serving brownie warm, with a scoop of good vanilla ice-cream on top! Mwa! xXx
