Yep, ULTIMATE chocolate brownies.  They’re so easy to make and are scrummy. You’ll need:

5oz/ 140g dark chocolate (I find the cheaper ones the best)

8oz/225g butter

5 free-range eggs

1lb/450g caster sugar

4oz/110g plain flour

2oz/55g cocoa powder

First, Heat the oven to 190c/Gas 5/ 375F.

Melt the butter and sugar together in a pan, making sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom.

Remove from the heat and stir in the extra ingredients. For the dark chocolate, melt gently in the microwave/ hob first, but leave some lumps in. This makes it gooey. In a good way!

Line a 20cm x 30cm/8 x 12in baking tray with parchment. Bake for 30-40 mins. To check, insert a knife into the middle – the mixture should be soft but cooked. i.e. not runny.

Remove form oven and cut into squares. Voila!

Served best with cream or ice-cream on the side. Mmm brownies…
