- Thursday, December 24, 2009

INGREDIENTS

225g dark chocolate, 70% cocoa solids

225g butter

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

200g caster sugar

3 eggs, beaten

150g ground almonds

100g chopped walnuts

Serving Size : Makes 16 squares

METHOD


1.	Preheat the oven to 170°C/gas mark 3. Melt the chocolate and butter gently over a low heat in a heavy-based saucepan.
2.	Take the pan off the heat, mix in the vanilla and sugar, and let it cool a little.
3.	Beat the eggs into the pan along with the ground almonds and chopped walnuts. Turn into a 24cm square baking tin or, most sensibly, use a foil one.
4.	Bake in the oven for 25–30 minutes, by which time the top will have set but the mixture will still be gooey. Once cooler, cut carefully, four down, four across, into 16 squidgybellied squares.
