Malteser Brownies

Updated: 26 Feb 2017

Ingredients

  • 100g milk chocolate
  • 100g dark chocolate
  • 200g unsalted butter
  • 3 large eggs
  • 200g golden caster sugar
  • 60g plain flour

  • 100g maltesers

  • Extra maltesers for decorating

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 150c. Line a 20cm x 20cm square brownie tin with non-stick baking paper.
  2. Put 200g unsalted butter and the chocolate in a heatproof mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl isn't touching the water. Stir frequently. Once completely melted remove from the heat and allow to cool for at least ten minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the eggs and sugar in the Kitchenaid.
  4. Stir the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture by han, along with the plain flour and maltesers.
  5. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 40 minutes until the top has developed a crust but the mixture still wobbles slightly when you nudge the tin (needed an extra 5 minutes last time).
  6. Leave to cool in the tin then chill for 4 hours. Slice into squares and serve topped with lightly crushed maltesers.

N.B quite a dark chocolate flavour; consider adding more sugar or using more milk chocolate?
