Brownies Infused with Strawberries and White Chocolate


I made brownies for the first time today adapting a Rachel Allen recipe that was given to me. The recipe calls for raspberries but as I could not locate them in time, I’ve used strawberries which worked wonderfully.
Recipe [my adaptation]
  • 200g dark chocolate
  • 150g butter
  • 225g caster sugar
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 150g strong white flour sifted (the recipe calls for plain flour but the strong flour works much better and holds the brownies together rather than letting them descend into a sticky [albeit tasty] mess
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 225g white chopped
  • 125g raspberries/chopped strawberries
Method

Pre-heat the oven to Gas 4, 180C (350F)
Grease and line a 8in square deep baking tin
Melt the dark chocolate and butter over boiling water
Mix in caster sugar and eggs gradually
Add the sifted flour and baking power
Add the chopped white chocolate and raspberries/chopped strawberries
Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes
Once cooked, leave to cool before cutting
Enjoy!
