Crunchy Chocolate Brownies.
Ingredients
4 sticks butter
1 pound semisweet chocolate chips
6 ounces dark chocolate (at least 75% cocoa) , chopped
6 large organic eggs
3 tablespoons instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons pure vanilla essence
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup plus 1/4 cup flour
50 Oreo cookies chopped into four pieces.
Chef's Tip
Brownies cook better when in the center of the oven. Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350°. Butter and flour a rectangle baking tray.
Method
Put a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water, heat butter, chocolate chips and unsweetened chocolate until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, coffee, vanilla and sugar. Blend chocolate mixture into egg mixture and cool.
In a medium bowl, sift together one cup flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture to chocolate. Put the crushed Oreos in a plastic bag with a 1/4 cup flour and shake, this stops them sinking to the bottom of the brownie.The add the Oreos to the chocolate mixture and pour into the baking tray, bang sharply on the counter twice with the tray to settle the mixture.
Bake 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean do not over bake they go dry when over baked. Cool and cut into squares.
If these are being served to an adult a large slug of kirsch or cherry brandy onto the brownies as they come out of the oven give them a fantastic cherry taste. Serve with cherry ice cream or a thick clotted cream or creme fraiche.
