The taste of chocolate brownie was something I could never resist. Visits to the mall was looked forward to enjoy a small piece of the hot chocolate brownie at exorbitant cost. Slowly the cost would overpower the liking for the very irresistible chocolate brownie. Finally I decided to give it a try to make it at home. The ingredients used for a brownie had maida, baking powder, baking soda and plenty of sugar: all non-healthy ingredients. So I tried a recipe with lesser sugar, skipped the baking soda and powder and used wheat flour. I have tried it hundreds of time and everyone who has tasted it could not resist another piece. Without much ado here is the recipe-
Brownie
Equipment
- OTG
- Mixer + Big Mixer Jar
- Mixing bowl
- Measuring Cup
- Tablespoon
- Teaspoon
- Double boil vessels
Ingredients
- 228 gm Chopped cooking chocolate (1¾ cup)
- 115 gm Salt-less Butter (½ cup)
- 80 gm Wheat Flour (10 tbsp)
- 11 gm Sugar-less Cocoa powder (2 tbsp)
- ¼ tsp Salt
- 3 Eggs (large)
- 150 gm Sugar (¾ cup)
- 1 tsp Vanilla essence
- 200 gm Chocolate chips or chopped chocolate chunks
- Measure all of the ingredients perfectly to the gram!
Instructions
- Dust the baking tray or put aluminum foil on the baking tray.
- Double boil the chocolate pieces along with butter. Stir occasionally, the chocolate will melt in approximately 5 minutes. (How to: Heat ¼ cup water in bigger vessel and place smaller vessel with chocolate into the bigger vessel.)
- Allow this to cool down for 10 minutes
- Whip cocoa powder, wheat flour, salt for 10 sec in a mixie bowl. Do this 5 times. OR You can also alternately sieve the dry ingredients thrice.
- Now add sugar to the chocolate and mix gently.
- Preheat the oven at 250°C for 10 minutes.
- Add egg to the chocolate sauce, one at a time. Mix gently.
- Add vanilla essence and mix again gently. (Do not over mix!)
- Gently fold in dry ingredients and mix. Be gentle with the mixing.
- Finally add the chocolate chips/chunks to this mixture.
- Pour the batter into the cake tray and then tap the tray twice on the kitchen slab to release any trapped air.
- Bake at 180°C for 30 to 35 min or until the toothpick comes clean.
Notes
- Ensure the butter and egg are at room temperature. So keep them out of the fridge in advance.
- Substitute oil for butter if you do not have it or your health conscious!
- You can add walnuts along with choc chips/chunks.
- Another variation, add chopped orange rind for a lovely orange flavor! Add it along with choc chips/chunks
