These Nutty Brownies are extremely delicious. I prefer brownies over cupcakes or cakes as I can control my portions ;-) And who wouldn't love dark, rich in taste, chocolatey and nutty squares of heaven ! More so if the recipe is so easy to put together. These have a lovely buttery, rich and nutty flavour. The chocolate chips along with cashew nuts will take you to heaven...

Nutty Dark Chocolate Browines :
Ingredients:
1 cup All purpose flour
1 cup light Brown sugar
3/4 cup unsalted Butter
150 gms Dark Chocolate roughly chopped
1/4 cup Cocoa powder
1/4 tsp Baking powder
1/2 cup semisweet Chocolate Chips (this time I used chocolate bars)
2 Eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla essence
A pinch of Salt
1/2 cup chopped Cashews
1/4 cup Chocolate chips
Method:
Pre-heat the Oven to 325 Degrees F and grease a 9 inch square shallow baking pan and dust lightly with flour. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder. Pour some water into a double boiler (or medium size saucepan) and place over the medium heat. Place another hear proof bowl over it and do make sure that the bottom of upper bowl should not touch the boiling water underneath. Put the chopped chocolate cubes and let it melt over low heat. Whisk frequently to avoid burning. When 80% chocolates has melted, remove from heat and add cocoa powder and whisk thoroughly to combine. Let it sit for a while to cool down.
Beat egg one at a time and froth it with a hand whisk to get lot of air in. Add chocolate essence and beat it well. Transfer the chocolate mixture into the egg liquid and combine well. Add dry flour into the wet and continuously stir the batter to incorporate it.
Pour this pan into the prepared baking tray and sprinkle chocolate chips and chopped cashews. Bake 20-25 minutes or until the top sets and inside is moist or an inserted knife comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack. Then cut into squares and serve with ice-cream or plain.
Just try and resist these...
