Chocolate Brownies for Grandchildren

 It's good to have something in the freezer that all grandchildren like for a dessert. Adults don't refuse them either.

This is a recipe from the WI Chocolate recipe book and always turns out well. I've added it to the separate recipe page.


CHOCOLATE BROWNIES 

These are good served warm with ice cream.

4 oz butter diced
4oz plain chocolate, broken into pieces
1 Tablespoon Golden Syrup
5oz dark muscovado sugar
5oz castor sugar
4 eggs, beaten
8oz SR Flour
1½oz cocoa powder
2oz white chocolate drops or chopped (optional)
2oz walnut pieces(optional)

Line base and sides of a 30cm x 22cm tin (12 inches x 8½ inches)
Preheat oven to 180℃/ 160℃ -fan
Place butter, chocolate and syrup in a large saucepan and melt gently over low heat.
Add all other ingredients and mix really well.
Spoon into tin, spread evenly into corners
Bake for approx 30 minutes until it has risen and is firm to the touch and coming away from the sides
Allow to cool in tin.

 Cut into 32 or 24 pieces.
