Toblerone Brownies

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

Making these again so posting the recipe here for my quick reference next time, as I’m sure there will be one!

Ingredients:
400g Toblerone. Ideally lots of the tiny Toblerone bars.
350g plain chocolate, the higher the cocoa content the better.
250g butter
250g sugar
3 tablespoons strong black coffee
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
75g self raising flour

Begin by melting the butter and plain chocolate in a saucepan over a very low heat. Purists will tell you that you should do this in a double boiler, but I find it works fine if you let the butter melt a little before adding the chocolate, and keep stirring. important – you are melting the plain chocolate only, NOT the Toblerone.
Set this aside to cool down and unwrap your Toblerone.
Chop the Toblerone roughly. With the tiny bars it is enough simply to break them into pieces. With these bigger bars chop each triangle into 3 or 4.
Set aside.
Now take the eggs and sugar and whisk them until they are smooth. Add the coffee and vanilla essence.
Next add the melted chocolate and butter
Keep stirring until it’s all a rich chocolatey colour, and then stir in the flour. Finally, stir in the chopped Toblerone, and pour into a greased and lined baking tray and bake at 180C until they look done on the top and the mixture doesn’t wobble when you tilt the baking tray.
Allow to cool in the tin for extra fudginess and then cut into pieces
Eat. Enjoy.
