Double Chocolate Brownies

Today I made some supernice brownies, and I decided to share the recipe with you, and not only that, I made a picture-guide! :-)

Enjoy!

Melt 140 grams of butter
 Butter needs to cool down before you add it to the mixture, because of the eggs. This is why I do it first of all.
Take three eggs

Measure 150-200 gr. of dark sugar
 This particular sugar is a Dutch sugar named Basterdsuiker, I haven't seen it in any other country yet, but the darkest sugar you can find will do. Cane sugar also works fine. The amount should be added according to your own taste, 150 is not very sweet, 200 is rather sweet.

Add the sugar to the eggs

Whisk together until it's smooth


Measure 75 grams of cacao

Add the cooled butter and cacao powder to the mixture

It should look like this.... yes, I like closeups ;-)

Cut up 150 grams of chocolate
 In this case I have used both white and dark chocolate, but you can use your imagination when it comes to adding stuff into the brownie...
140 grams of flour
 To make this brownie gluten free, you can use rice flower, this does not change the taste of structure much at all, so it is an easy, tasty alternative for coeliakies.
Mix in the chocolate
 CHOCOLATE!!!!!
Pour everything into the baking dish
The final temptation




It bakes for about 35-40 minutes at 170 ÂșC, depending on the oven you use of course. Keep a close eye on it, it's a shame to have it burnt :-p
