Chocolate and Peanut Butter Brownies
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Brownies
Ingredients
- 230g Unsalted Butter
- 125g Dark Chocolate (finely chopped)
- 125g Milk Chocolate (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Instant Coffee Powder
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 250g Light Brown Sugar
- 3 Large Free-range Eggs
- 100g Plain Flour
- 40g Cocoa Powder
- 2 Bar 48g Snickers
- pinch Salt
- 100g Peanut Butter (smooth)
Directions
1. | Melt the butter and chocolate in a bowl over simmering water and allow to cool |
2. | Add a tablespoon of hot water to the teaspoon of coffee powder and stir into the melted chocolate mix. Set aside to cool |
3. | Preheat the oven Gas Mark 4 / 180ºC / 350ºF. Butter and flour a 9" x 9" baking pan |
4. | In a mixer on high speed, beat the eggs, vanilla and sugar until it is thick and creamy, about 8 minutes |
5. | Turn the speed to slow and pour in the cooled melted chocolate and butter, and the coffee. Mix until combined |
6. | In a separate bowl, sift flour and cocoa together, then toss in and coat the chopped snickers |
7. | Lift the bowl from the mixer and gently fold in the flour and snickers by hand with a spatula until it looks fudgy in texture, then pour into the prepared pan |
8. | Melt the peanut butter in the microwave just until runny, then drizzle over the brownie mixture. Swirl with a knife if necessary, ensuring not to over mix |
9. | Bake for 30-35 minutes until just cooked. I like mine still a little underdone and fudge, but cook a little longer if you prefer. Allow to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares |
