Ingredients
- 250 g real butter
- 200 g dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids, broken up

Method
Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and line a 25cm square baking tin with greaseproof paper.
- In a large bowl over some simmering water, melt the butter and the chocolate and mix until smooth.
- When melted, stir in the sugar until fully dissolved.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder and then sieve this into the chocolate mixture.
- Stir together well. Beat the eggs and mix them in until you have a silky consistency.
- Pour your brownie mix into the baking tray, and place in the oven for around 20-25 minutes.
- You don’t want to overcook them so, unlike cakes, you don’t want a skewer to come out all clean. After 15 minutes take them out give them a shake and pop them back in.
- The brownies should be slightly springy on the outside but still gooey in the middle. Allow to cool in the tray, then carefully transfer to a large chopping board and cut into squares
