Toblerone Brownies
INGREDIENTS
360g Sugar
3 Eggs
1 Vanilla pod, seeds scraped out
110g Plain flour
120g Cocoa powder (extra brute or good quality 100%)
130g Chopped Toblerone
360g Butter (room temperature)
METHOD
- Pre-heat the oven to 175°C
- Whisk together the sugar, vanilla and eggs for 3 minutes until light and pale
- Sift together the flour and cocoa
- Using a rubber spatula fold in 1/3 of the flour and cocoa into the sugar/egg mix until fully incorporated
- Then fold in 1/3 of the butter until fully incorporated
- Repeat both steps until you have folded in all remaining flour and butter
- At this point add the chopped Toblerone and mix just enough to distribute the chocolate
- Cook in the oven in a 20cm baking tin for 30 minutes
- To test the brownie lightly press the centre and there should be a little resistance, if not return to the oven for another 5 minutes and check again
- When ready remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack. Don't try and remove the brownie yet as it will be very delicate
- When cooled completely remove from the baking tin and serve
