HAZELNUT BROWNIES:

Who doesn't love brownies? Let me ask this way: who doesn't love freshly baked home-made brownies? And who doesn't love to bake the best ever brownies quickly with a very easy recipe? Well if you are one of those chaps keep reading because you're on the right place. I have always loved brownies and never thought to bake it myself as in Turkey I could have found this delicious dessert in every restaurant. Until I came to England... I start to find brownies that are sold just front shelf of the cashier as a take away bar with full of additives... And I'm afraid they all tasted crap. So I have tried to figure out my own recipe. You must have realised I love using the chocolate itself instead of cocoa and my brownie recipe has chocolate bar as an ingredient. My recipe makes the brownies the way I like: not so chewy and fudge-y in the middle but also not like cake; something in between crunchy outside and chocolate-y in the middle. If it sounds like your taste too; give my recipe a try and tell me what you think :) Enjoy!

Ingredients:

130 gr. unsalted butter

200 gr. cooking chocolate (%60 cocoa)

225 gr. caster sugar

3 medium eggs

1 vanilla stick

100 gr. crushed hazelnuts

100 gr. plain white flour

To-Bake:

Crush the chocolate with your hands and put pieces in a bowl.

Add diced butter pieces into bowl.

Put the bowl above a pot which contains hot water boiling on medium heat. Place the bowl carefully so that the base does not touch to water.

Stir the chocolate and butter from time to time and melt with the evaporated water for about 10-15 min. (This process is called bain marie).

Set the melted chocolate and butter mix aside to cool down for 5 mins. 

Once it has cooled down add the sugar and mix for 5 mins.

Then add the eggs one at a time and mix for 3 mins after each egg.

Remove the vanilla beans from stick and add; mix for 2 mins.

Add crushed hazelnuts and mix for 2 more mins.

Finally add the flour (sieved) and mix carefully for 2 mins. Make sure you dont over mix the mixture.

Pour the mixture to 23x23 cm tray that you put baking paper.

Pre-heat your oven to 160 degrees centigrade (fan).

Bake your brownies for 30-35 mins.

Once cool down to room temperature slice the brownies and serve warm either plain or with chocolate sauce/ice cream.
