Ingredients

Measurement: Imperial | Metric | USA

300g plain chocolate (70% cocoa solids or higher is better quality)
300g milk chocolate
75g self-raising flour
3 large egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.

Step 2

Break the plain chocolate and 90g of the milk chocolate into pieces and put into a heatproof bowl with the butter.

Melt over a pan of barely simmering water, stirring frequently.

Step 3

Rich chocolate brownie mixture in a bowl.

Chop the remaining milk chocolate into small, chunky pieces.

Stir the flour and eggs into the melted chocolate until combined.

Stir in half of the chopped chocolate.

Step 4

Pour the mixture into the tin (20cm by 20cm).

Sprinkle with the remaining chopped chocolate.

Step 5

Bake the brownies in the oven for around 25 minutes - until they have risen and are firm to the touch.

Step 6

Leave to cool in the tin.

Once cool, cut into squares before serving.

They can be stored in an air-tight container.
