Flourless Chocolate Brownies
Week 36 of the Cookbook Challenge and the theme is Comfort – what can be better comfort food than chocolate? And when you do anything with chocolate you may as well be decadent and go all out, and who better to learn from than Nigella. This recipe is from my Nigella Express book.
Ingredients:
225g dark chocolate
225g butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
200g caster sugar
3 eggs, beaten
150g ground almonds
100g chopped walnuts
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees celcius. Melt the chocolate and butter gently over a low heat in a heavy based saucepan.
Take the pan off the heat, mix in the vanilla and sugar, and let it cool a little.
Beat the eggs into the pan along with the ground almonds and chopped walnuts. Turn into a 24cm square baking tin.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, by which time the top will have set but the mixture will still be gooey. Once cooler, cut carefully, four down, four across, into 16 squares.
This recipe was really easy to make and with minimal ingredients it’s something you can whip together when you need a bit of a chocolate fix. Plus it tasted great, nice and moist, and keeps well in an air tight container. Yum!








Mmmm licks lips. Looks yum!
That looks so fudgy and gooey… yum! Now I’m imagining it swirled through with dulce de leche, too…
oh yum! I’m going to try this with hazelnut flour!
