Chocolate Brownies
'Moist and absolutely loaded with chocolate. Recipe adapted from King Arthur Flour'
Ingredients:
2/3 cup cocoa powder
1 cup sugar substitute such as fruit sugar
Pinch of salt
1 cup plain flour
1 teaspoon instant coffee powder optional
1 cup chocolate chips milk chocolate, semisweet or bittersweet (your choice)
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sustainable source of vegetable oil
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Method:
Preheat oven to 350°F
Line a 9x9 square pan with foil or parchment paper, leaving a couple inches of overhang on two sides (this will allow you to lift the whole tray of brownies out of the pan for easy removal)
Grease the foil/parchment
Combine cocoa powder, sugar, salt, flour, coffee powder, and chocolate chips in a large bowl
Whisk until combined
Add eggs, oil, water and vanilla and stir with a rubber spatula until combined (it will be fairly thick)
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top Bake for 25-35 minutes (start checking at 25 minutes)
The brownies are done when a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out without raw batter on it
Be careful not to over bake
Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack
These brownies sound yummy. I believe we should all enjoy treats every now and again, so I will definitely make these soon.
Yes, I agree. That's probably where the saying, "a little bit of what we fancy does us good" comes from.
I personally believe it's true but it's important we learn not to over-indulge, particularly when it comes to eating sweet things.
We would love to know how you get on when you've made them.
