Ingredients

Scale
- 185g (6oz) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 185g (6oz) best dark chocolate, chopped
- 85g (3oz) plain flour, sieved
- 40g (1 1/2oz) cocoa powder, sieved
- 3 large eggs
- 225g (1/2lb ) golden caster sugar
- 100g (3oz) white chocolate, chopped
- 32 Bean Boozled jelly beans
Instructions
- Place the butter and chocolate in a bowl.
- Fill a small saucepan with some water and then sit the bowl on top so it rests on the rim of the pan, not touching the water. Put over a low heat until the butter and chocolate have melted, stirring occasionally to mix them. Remove the bowl from the pan.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4.
- Using a shallow 20cm (8in) square tin, cut out a square of non-stick baking parchment to line the base.
- Break the eggs into a large bowl and tip in the sugar. With an electric mixer on maximum speed, whisk the contents. After about 5 minutes, the mixture will look thick, creamy and about double its original volume. The amount of time this takes will depends on how powerful your mixer is.
- Gently fold the cooled chocolate mixture into the sweet egg mixture. Be careful not to beat the air out of the batter.
- Gently fold in the flour and cocoa powder and then stir in the white chocolate.
- Pour half of the batter into the tin, then sprinkle evenly with jelly beans.
- Pour the rest of the batter in. Give the tin a shake to even things out and then place in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
- If the center is still wobbly give it another 5 minutes in the oven.
- Wait for the brownie to completely cooled down before cutting into desired pieces.
- Store in an airtight container, preferably in the fridge. It is freezable too!
Notes
- Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate and butter in the microwave. Zap it for 30 seconds at a time, stir it and zap again. Continue the process until the chocolate is melted.
