Ingredients

    375 g very dark chocolate ( or dairy free alternative)
    375 g unsalted butter or a good quality dairy free marg suitable for baking
    6 large eggs
    500g caster sugar
    225g plain flour
    1 tsp salt

    optional add 300 g chopped walnuts, pecan or dried sour cherries

    the richness of the choclate means this works well with dairy free alternatives to butter and I often make it that way for my parter who is dairy free

Directions

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/ gas 4
line a tin 33x23 is about right

melt the butter and chocolate together in a pan over a very low heat. stir occasionally so it doesn't burn

beat the eggs with the sugar

when the chocolate/butter mix is melted add it slowly to the egg/sugar mixture, mix well

mix in the flour and salt

add any additions such as nuts or dried cherries

pour into the tin

bake for about 25 mins. It's ready when the top has dried to a paler colour and the middle is still gooey

Don't wait for the middle to dry out as you want a gooey middle and they will continue to cook in the pan after you atke them out of the oven. I usually check after 20 mins, and find it's often slightly less than 25 mins
As you're goint o cut it into squares, you can cut in if you're not sure. as soon as the mix is gooey, but not liquid, it's done

Serving Size: 48 Small brownies or fewer larger ones
