Brownies

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

What is better than good brownies, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream? nothing :)

I was craving for something very chocolaty, and this was just the perfect thing to make, at 8 pm, easy to make, and enjoyable to eat.

Ingredients:

100 g butter

3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

1/4 cup white granulated sugar

2 eggs

125 g chocolate

1 tbsp golden syrup

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 cup all-purpose flour

Method:

• sift flour and baking powder and set aside
• place butter, both sugars, chocolate and golden syrup in a pan, heat in low heat till it is smooth and melted, set it aside
• in another bowl, whisk eggs, than add to the previous mixture
• add the flour mixture, mix with a spoon
• pour the mixture into a baking tray, bake in a preheated oven (170 degrees), for 20-25 minutes.

I don't like the too chocolatey-bitter chocolate cakes or brownies, so these were just perfect for me. I got the recipe from this lovely blog "the kitchen of a Saudi Wife" and as she mentioned, the most important thing is not to over mix it, I used a whisk to mix the batter. 

Ingredients:

100 gm salted butter

1 cup caster sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup flour

1/4 tsp baking powder

In the original recipe, you'll get an icing recipe but I never used it. The brownies are so good they don't stay long to be iced :D

Preheat oven to 175 c

• Melt butter, remove from heat, cool and whisk with sugar, eggs, and vanilla
• Add flour mixed with the baking powder, don't over mix here. 
• I use my cupcake tray to make these brownies
• bake for 15-20 minutes 
• Enjoy...
