Gooey Chocolate Brownies

Rich, fudgy brownies with a crackly top — a proper treat.

Ingredients

  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 175g butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 250g sugar
  • 100g plain flour
  • 30g cocoa powder
  • A pinch of salt

Method

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tin with parchment.
  2. 2Melt the chocolate and butter together, either in the microwave or over a bain-marie. Let it cool slightly.
  3. 3Whisk the eggs and sugar together until pale and slightly fluffy.
  4. 4Fold in the melted chocolate mixture, then sift in the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Fold gently until just combined.
  5. 5Pour into the tin and bake for 25-28 minutes, until the top is crackly but the centre still has a slight wobble.
  6. 6Let it cool in the tin before slicing into squares.

The secret is slightly underbaking them — they'll firm up as they cool and stay gooey in the middle.
