Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 35 minutes
Serves: 9
Ingredients:
- 125g butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1 cup almond meal
- 50g gluten free chocolate chips (optional)
- Pure icing sugar, to serve
- Raspberries and ice cream to serve
Method:
- Preheat oven to 160ยฐC.
- Grease and line a 20cm square oven proof dish.
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter, sugar, cocoa and water. Stir until completely melted then add eggs and vanilla. Finally stir in the almond meal.
- Pour mixture into the prepared dish and cook in oven for 35-40 minutes.
- When ready, remove from oven and allow to cool in the dish for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely on a cake rack. (I say this but it has never actually happened in our house โ it always gets attacked the second its removed from the baking dish.)
Sprinkle with icing sugar, cut into squares and serve with raspberries and ice cream or on its own.
Tip: For a variation, try mixing the raspberries through the chocolate mixture before baking.
