Ohhh yeah...

We also baked some chocolate brownies to take to the tattoo shop today as well.
it was the first time that i had made brownies.. and for making them at 1am last night i have to say they turned out better than i expected!
and as an added bonus they were super easy to make :)

Chocolate Brownies:
200g unsalted butter
100g milk chocolate
100g dark chocolate
1 cup brown sugar
3 eggs lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla essence
3/4 cup plain flour
2 tbs cocoa powder

*heat oven to 170, line a 5cm deep 18cm cake tin with greaseproof paper.
*heat butter, chocolate and sugar in a saucepan over a low heat, stirring constantly until melted and smooth.
*put into a bowl to cool down.
*add eggs and vanilla to cooled chocolate mix. mix well.
*sift in flour and cocoa over mix , stir until combined.
*pour brownie mix into the lined cake pan and bake for 20mins or until just set.

i also decided to pipe some chocolate ganache to the top of each pieces once it was cut into pieces. ganache that i use is a 1- 2 ratio basically;
100ml cream
200g chocolate
boil cream and add chocolate, stir until smooth and lump free.
if the mix is still lumpy then microwave for 20 seconds at a time on a low heat.
i like to make ganache in large amounts and freeze the leftovers. it freezes perfectly and can be used over and over. :) very handy!

they were all a big hit with the tattoo crew :)

enjoy
