Ingredients

200g 70% Dark chocolate
250g Unsalted butter
75g Cocoa powder
500g Light brown sugar
8g Salt
250g Motherdough discard
5 Eggs (large)
Seed from 1 vanilla pod or 1 tsp vanilla essence.
125ml milk (optional see notes)
100g Cake flour (optional see notes)
Chocolate chips or nuts (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 180 deg C fan on. Line a 20X30cm baking tray at least 3cm deep with baking paper and grease well.
Break the chocolate into pieces and cut the butter into chunks. Melt in a double boiler until smooth.
Place the cocoa powder, sugar, salt and chocolate mixture into a food processor and blitz together for 1 minute. Alternatively place into a bowl and mix vigorously.
Place the Motherdough discard in chunks and vanilla into the mixture. Blitz until smooth, adding 1 egg at a time. Alternatively blitz the discard and vanilla to a smooth paste with 5 eggs and mix well into the sugar/chocolate/butter mixture.
If using the cake flour and milk, add milk to the above mixture and mix well/blitz to fully incorporate and then fold in the flour and mix well making sure there are no lumps.
Pour the batter into a prepared pan and add whatever toppings inspire you. Bake at 180 deg C fan on for 25 minutes. Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan. Cut with a warm, wet knife, wiped clean after each cut for best results.

Recipe Note

For cake like texture in your brownies add the optional flour and milk as per the recipe. For a more fudge style brownie leave these ingredients out.
