Servings 16 brownies

Ingredients
  

  • 250 g butter
  • 350 g dark chocolate
  • 10 ml vanilla essence
  • 10 ml coffee powder
  • 3 eggs
  • 225 g castor sugar
  • 75 g self raising flour
  • 150 g chocolate chips
  • 175 g pecan nuts

Instructions
 

  • Butter and flour a 23cm square cake tin.
  • Preheat the oven to 150°C.
  • In a glass or ceramic bowl mix the butter, chocolate, vanilla and coffee. Heat this in the microwave until melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and castor sugar together. Fold in the self raising flour.
  • To this mixture add the melted chocolate and butter, and mix well. Then fold in the chocolate chips and pecan nuts.
  • Pour all this into the baking tin and bang a few times on the counter top to dislodge any large air bubbles.
  • Bake in a slow oven for about 40 minutes. The mixture should have a defined crust on top and should not be wobbly, but it will still be slightly soft to the touch and a skewer will NOT come out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and leave until completely cold (preferably over night) before cutting. Cut into squares and store in an airtight container.

Notes

The brownies can be stored for about a week in a Tupperware or about a month if frozen.
