Fudgy Dark Chocolate and Pistachio Brownies

Easy

The mixture wants three or four minutes of beating after the butter goes in - that is what builds the crackled paper top. Take them out while the middle still shakes; they set as they cool.

Fudgy Dark Chocolate and Pistachio Brownies

Ingredients

24 servings
  • 400g caster sugar
  • 300g 70% dark chocolate
  • 70g plain flour
  • 130g self-raising flour
  • 300g room temp unsalted butter
  • 80g cocoa powder
  • 50g Pistachios
  • 5 medium eggs

Amounts for 24 servings.

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180C fan and line a 25cm square tin with baking parchment. Roughly chop the dark chocolate into 2-3cm pieces and roughly chop the pistachios.

  2. Whisk the cocoa powder together with the sifted flours in a bowl until combined.

  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs. Tip the chopped chocolate in with the eggs and set aside.

  4. Melt the butter in a small pan over a low heat. Once melted, add the sugar and stir gently until dissolved.

  5. Pour the hot butter mixture over the eggs and chocolate and stir until the chocolate melts through. Beat with an electric whisk for 3-4 minutes.

  6. Fold in the cocoa and flour mixture gently with a spoon or spatula, then stir through the pistachios.

  7. Tip the batter into the prepared tin and bake for 18 minutes, until the top is crisp and the middle still wobbles when you shake the tin.

  8. Cool and set in the tin before lifting out. Eat warm, or keep in the fridge.
