Ingredients
Brownie Mixture
- 120 g 70% dark chocolate Plus an extra 30g for topping
- 120 g unsalted butter
- 200 g caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 120 g gluten-free flour
- 70 g cocoa powder
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line and grease a 6-inch square cake tin.
- Break 90g of dark chocolate into pieces and melt with unsalted butter using a bain marie until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together caster sugar, lightly beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until light and fluffy.
- Fold in the melted chocolate and butter mixture gently into the egg and sugar blend.
- In another bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour and cocoa powder, then gradually fold this into the chocolate mixture.
Baking
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Chop the remaining 30g of dark chocolate and scatter over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until firm at the edges but slightly soft in the center.
- Once baked, cool in the tin to set further before cutting into 9 squares.
Notes
Allow melted chocolate to cool slightly to avoid cooking the eggs. Use gentle folding motions when incorporating flour and cocoa to preserve air. Don’t overbake for gooey brownies.
