XL Chocolate Brownie Cake


XL Chocolate Brownie 

Cake


This is absolutely without a doubt the BEST DESSERT I have ever... EVER made. 

Ingredients:

* 1 Cup Plain Flour
* 1 Cup Sugar
* 3 or 4 large eggs (separated)
* 250 approx Cooking Chocolate (mix of dark and white)
* Nuts (optional)
* Vanilla Extract
* (125g) Half Cup Butter

1. On a low heat, melt half the chocolate, sugar, vanilla extract and butter in a pan. leave to cool
2. Whilst the chocolate mix is cooling. mix the flour and egg yolks together
3. Whip the egg whites in a separate bowl
4. The chocolate should be cool now. so add it to the mixture to the bowl with the four. add the rest of the chocolate pieces and nuts too if desired
5. Gently fold in the egg whites to the mixture
6. Put the mixture into a cake tin which has been lined with baking paper
7. Cook for about 30 minutes at 180 degrees


Extra Tips:

* Cake is ready when the top feels solid. DONT use the fork test as you want the cake to be gooey inside.
* If you don't want to add nuts you can add pretty much anything else. dried cherries.. raisins.. more chocolate... marshmallows...
* Put a little butter in the bottom of your cake tin before lining it with baking paper. this will stop it from moving around.
