Preparation time:
1 hour (not including time to cool)
Skill level:
Easy
Amount:
1 cake
210 g Agrain® 03 Maskmel Stout
1 tsp baking powder
3 tsp vanilla sugar
1.5 tsp salt
6 eggs
600g sugar
200 g 70% dark chocolate
120g butter
125g chopped walnuts (or use another of your favorite nuts)
Use a strainer and mix Agrain® 03 flour, vanilla sugar, salt and baking powder. Melt chocolate and butter over water bath.
Once completely melted, remove it from the water bath and mix with first the eggs and sugar, then flour and finally the chopped walnuts.
Divide the cake dough into a baking tin about 25 cm X 35 CM, the height of the cake should be about 3 cm – remember it does not really rise and it should be spongy inside.
Preheat the oven to 180C (hot air), bake for about 35 - 40 minutes until dry on top and almost feels solid when gently touches it. You can test whether it is finished by sticking a fork in the cake in the oven, when the fork comes out clean, then the cake is finished.
Allow the brownies to cool for 15 – 20 before cutting it into small squares (about 2.5X2.5 cm). You cut the sides off and then there's about 25 pieces of cake.
