Ingredients

 

• 250g unsalted butter

• 200g dark chocolate

• optional: 75g dried sour cherries

• optional: 50g chopped nuts

• 80g cocoa powder, sifted

• 65g plain flour, sifted

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 360g sugar

• 4 large eggs

 

 

 

Preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Line a 25cm square baking tin with greaseproof paper. In a large bowl over some simmering water, melt the butter and the chocolate and mix until smooth. Add the cherries and nuts, if you’re using them, and stir together. In a separate bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder and sugar, then add this to the chocolate, cherry and nut mixture. Stir together well. Beat the eggs and mix in until you have a silky consistency.

Pour your brownie mix into the baking tray, and place in the oven for around 25 minutes.
