CHOCOLATE FUDGE BROWNIE TIPS:

These Chocolate Fudge Brownies freeze well, so feel free to make a double batch and pop them in the freezer. They’re particularly great for picnics, for any big kid and a must have to eat on dark miserable rainy days.

These are best made with regular butter, but you can use dairy-free butter. The texture is the same but the taste is slightly different.

A gooey brownie always tastes better than being dry and overcooked. If you’re not a fan of the gooey bit in the middle, it will set once cooled. To revive the goo just pop it in the microwave for five to ten seconds.

This recipe calls for 100g of dark chocolate chips to add some crunch. Other food ideas you can throw in instead of chocolate could be chopped walnuts, pistachios, marshmallows, or if you don’t mind the sugar content add some chopped up maltesers or crunchie bars etc. Feel free to use anything you fancy at the time.

Cacao powder has a milder taste compared to cocoa, either is fine to use.

Yogurt goes particularly well with this brownie. Here’s a great recipe for you to try Coconut Vanilla Yogurt.
