Rich Fudgy Chocolate Brownie Slice

Method

Tap a step to tick it off as you go.

1. 1Heat the ovenPreheat to 170°C, or 160°C fan. Line a small baking tin, about 20cm square, with baking paper.
2. 2Melt butter and chocolateMelt the butter and dark chocolate chips gently, either in short microwave bursts or over a bain-marie. Stir until smooth, then let it cool for a minute or two so it is warm rather than hot.
3. 3Whisk eggs and sugarWhisk the eggs and sugar just until slightly thickened and glossy. No need to go wild here — this is a dense brownie slice, not a fluffy cake.
4. 4CombinePour the chocolate mixture into the eggs and sugar. Stir gently until combined.
5. 5Add dry ingredientsAdd the cocoa powder, flour, almond meal and salt. Fold gently until there are no dry streaks. The batter will be thick — that is what you want.
6. 6Top and bakeSpread the batter into the lined tin. Just before baking, sprinkle the top with extra chocolate chips and a little flaky sea salt. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until the edges are set and the middle still has a slight wobble.⏳ 22 mins waiting
7. 7Cool completelyLet it cool completely in the tin. It firms up and becomes fudgier as it cools.
