Cranberry & Hazelnut Chocolate Brownies

These festive favourites are truly delicious, as a brownie should be, thin papery crust and a gooey interior. I’ve added some chewy dried cranberries and some nuts for a texture that simply can’t be beaten.

Ingredients

  • dark chocolate 200 g
  • unsalted butter 200 g
  • caster sugar 260 g
  • egg 3
  • plain flour 120 g
  • cocoa powder 1 tbsp
  • roasted chopped hazelnuts 100 g
  • dried cranberries 100 g
  • sea salt pinch

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan. Grease and line a 20cm x 20cm baking tin with baking paper.
  • Toast the hazelnuts (if not already roasted) in a small dry pan, until golden brown.
  • Place the chocolate and butter in a microwave safe bowl and cook on full power for 2-3 minutes until melted, stir well until fully combined.
  • With an electric whisk, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy, this will take around 5 minutes. Gently fold in the melted chocolate until combined.
  • Sift in the flour and cocoa powder with a pinch of salt and fold through gently.
  • Stir in the cranberries and hazelnuts, reserving a handful to scatter on top, then transfer the mixture to the prepared baking tin. Scatter the reserved cranberries and hazelnuts on top.
  • Bake in the oven for around 30-35 minutes. Check the brownie has a papery thin crust on top and it should have a slightly gooey centre, remove from the oven and leave to cool.
  • Portion into 8 brownies then plate up and enjoy! We love serving this with some vanilla ice cream.
