- Sift the caster sugar,flour,baking powder and cocoa in a large bowl.
- Add the chocolate butter mixture to the dry ingredients and combine.
- Break the eggs and whisk till you get a super silky consistency.
- Line the baking pan(otherwise these will stick )
- Bake for 25 minutes in a preheated oven at 180 degrees.
- The test for the brownies is that they should have a firm exterior but a gooey interior. Its usually a little less cooked than a cake. The skewer inserted will not come out clean.
Notes
You can make your own double boiler but boiling water in a slightly tall pot and keeping the chocolate over it in a heat proof bowl.
Make sure the bowl with chocolate doesn't touch the boiling water.
