Great for afternoon tea, or you could add some lashings of fruit and cream and serve it up for dessert!

Prep Time: 5 mins | Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder, sifted if lumpy
  • 1/2 cup icing sugar, sifted if lumpy
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 3/4 teaspoons sea salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C. Lightly spray an 8×8 baking dish with cooking spray and line with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa powder, icing sugar, chocolate chips, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, water, and vanilla.
  4. Sprinkle the dry mix over the wet mix and stir until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and use a spatula to smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with only a few crumbs attached (note: it’s better to pull the brownies out early than to leave them in too long).

Cool completely before slicing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These also freeze well!
