Recipes From A Normal Mum: Double Decker Brownies

Grease and line a 20cm x 30cm tray and preheat the oven to 180°C/fan 160°C/gas mark 4.

Break the chocolate into squares and melt together with the butter in a large saucepan over a very low heat, stirring regularly to ensure the chocolate doesn’t burn. (I usually put the butter in first as this shields the chocolate from burning, of course you can also melt in a bowl suspended over a pan of simmering water instead).

Remove from the heat when smooth and add the sugars, eggs and flour. Stir well and pour half into the tin, then add the Double Decker pieces.

Pour the rest of the brownie batter over the top of the Double Decker pieces ensuring none are exposed (or they will burn in the oven).

Bake for 25 – 30 minutes until the brownie has stopped wobbling and is starting to look a little cracked at the edges. Cool on a wire rack and refrigerate for an hour before cutting with a very sharp knife. You can clean the knife after each cut to achieve perfect little squares.
