Sweet week - Hats off …

to “delicious.” magazine January 2017.

I mentioned Waitrose Food January 2017 previously - now it's the turn of “delicious”.

On catching up with my reading I came across their suggestion for an easy treat, which I also made for class.

Malteser Brownies

200g unsalted butter
200g dark chocolate – 70% cocoa solids or as
near to as possible

3 large eggs
200g golden caster sugar

50g plain flour
100g Maltesers

Extra Maltesers, crushed to decorate

Heat the oven 170c/150fan/Gas 3.5. Line a 20x20cm brownie tin with non stick paper. Put the butter and chocolate into a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water – make sure the bowl isn't touching the water!

Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl combine eggs and caster sugar. When the chocolate mixture has melted stir it into the egg mixture and add the flour and Maltesers. Pour the batter into the tin and bake for 40 minutes until the top has developed a crust but the mixture still wobbles slightly. Leave to cool in the tin, then chill for 4 hours. Slice into squares and serve topped with the crushed Maltesers.

Makes 16. Can be made 24hrs in advance and kept in the fridge, unsliced.

Alternatively cool and wrap in cling film and freeze for up to 2 months.

Here are the photos :





By the way – a few seconds on medium in a microwave will give you a warm gooey squidgy brownie – serve with ice cream – bang goes the diet – cut the brownies into small, almost bite size pieces – it might help!

Congrats delicious magazine!
