Food Friday - Chocolate and Chilli Brownies

Ben Jackson

Available for over a year

Gooey Chocolate chilli brownie's with juicy cranberries: When teatime's or the evenings begin to get chilly, this is great to have with a cup of Coffee or tea. I have been making this for years and always gives me a nice warm, fuzzy feeling after eating it. A super, easy, sweet treat to serve whatever the occasion;may it be friends around for the Rugby or even an Autumn BBQ, this will go great after Hot dogs, or an autumnal one pot wonder. Ingredients: (Serves 8 Brownies in a tin roughly as mine was 28cmx18cm ) - 100g Dark Chocolate ( at least 60,70 % cocoa solids ) - 88g unsalted butter - 163g Caster sugar - 2 eggs - 65g plain flour - 50g dried cranberries - 1/4-1/2 tsp of Ground hot chilli powder (depending how hot you want it! ) - 1/4-1/2 tsp of fresh chopped red chilli ( depending how hot you want it! ) Method: * Grease a tin of your choice and line with parchment paper * Preheat oven to 160-170c * Melt chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water * In a separate bowl whisk eggs and sugar together and then sift in flour and fold in * Place that mixture into the melted chocolate and butter and mix with a spatular, add in cranberries * place mixture into your baking tray and pop into the oven for about 40 minutes * Allow to cool on a tray until you cut into squares * Serve with a nice cup of hot drink, double cream or Ice cream.
