I am a strong believer in eating healthy food constantly but rewarding yourself with special treats. This one fits into the special treats category. It’s a great dessert for a cold rainy day. The kids will LOVE it and enjoying helping too like my daughter did when I made it. Have fun cooking this one (and licking the bowl!)

CHOCOLATE BROWNIES WITH FUDGE SAUCE

150g dark cooking chocolate
100g butter
1/2 cup caster suagr
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 cup prunes, finely diced
2 eggs
1 cup self-raising flour
Fudge Sauce
150g dark cooking chocolate
60g butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cream

1. Pre-heat oven to 170ºC. Line a lamington tray with baking paper. For the brownies, place the chocolate, butter, sugar, vanilla essence and prunes in a saucepan and heat over medium heat until melted.



2. Leave to cool slightly, then stir in eggs, one at a time until well combined.



3. Stir in flour then place into prepared tin and bake for 8-10 minutes. (You want it to still be gooey in the middle.)




4. For the sauce, place chocolate, butter and sugar in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until dissolved. Stir in cream and set aside.



5. Serve brownies with sauce and custard or ice-cream if desired.

Serves 4-6
