Hazelnut and walnut brownies
Hazelnut and walnut brownies
100 grams hazelnuts, roughly chopped (not too small)
100 grams walnuts, roughly chopped
150 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
150 grams flour, sifted
225 grams butter, cubed
5 medium sized eggs, beaten
500 grams sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 4, 350°F (180°C).
Put your chopped nuts onto a baking tray and roast them for 7-8 minutes – keep an eye on them as they can burn quite quickly.
In a large mixing bowl, melt your butter and chocolate over a saucepan of simmering water. When it’s all melted, add the rest of your ingredients and mix well. You’ll end up with quite a gooey, sticky mess.
In either a non-stick or prepared baking tray, pour your mixture and level it out.
Bake this in the oven for 30 minutes and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting them into squares.
