Twix Brownies

Yay! More brownies!!
This time, with chunks of Twix!


I've been experimenting with lots of different brownie recipes lately, but I always seem to go back to Lorraine Pascale's Brownie Recipe..
I altered the recipe ever so slightly, but all credits go to her!
I've already eaten 3 of these (as well as around 4 from the last batch of Mars brownies - someone please stop me!)


Ingredients

165g butter
220g dark chocolate
3 large eggs
2 extra egg yolks
little bit of vanilla
165 light brown sugar
2tbsp plain flour
1tbsp cocoa powder
pinch of salt
3 normal sized Twix bars, cut into chunks..

Preheat oven to 180C, and line a baking tin etc..
Melt the butter and chocolate either in the microwave or on top of a saucepan, and leave to cool for a few minutes.
Cut up the Twix bars!!


In another bowl, beat the eggs, yolks and vanilla until light and fluffy. Next, add in the sugar in two batches and continue to mix.
Then, fold in the chocolate mixture, and then the flour, cocoa powder and salt until just combined..


Fold in the Twix chunks, and then pour into the prepared tin!


Bake at 180 for 25-30 mins..
You know what, just click this link - Lorraine explains it all much better.

This is my staple brownie recipe, and there is no doubt that I'll be coming back to this for years to come..
It's a little bit fussy (i.e. hand-mixer, melting chocolate and using up 5 eggs) but definitely worth it!!
Any type of mix-in work with this! I've used Oreos and Maltesers before and they matched up perfectly with the brownie's texture and sweetness!
