Our recipe for the week is Rich Custard Brownies. Who doesn’t love brownies? Brownies come in a variety of forms and may be either fudgy or cakey, depending on their density. They may include nuts, frosting, cream cheese, chocolate chips, or other ingredients. With custard, they’re a gooey delight. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Bread Flour
- 2 /3 cup Unsweetened Chocolate
- 2/3 cup  Bittersweet Chocolate
- 1 1/4 cups  Butter
- 4 large  Eggs (at room temperature)
- 1 1/4 cups Sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 325F
- Melt the chocolates (unsweetened and bittersweet) and the butter over a bain marie. Once melted, set this aside and let cool to room temperature before adding any of the other ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, mix eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla until well blended.
- Blend in the chocolate mixture into the eggs mixture. Then sift and fold flour.
