Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¼ cups (200g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter or margarine
  • 1 cup (200g) light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla bean paste , or extract
  • 4 tbsp cocoa powder , unsweetened
  • ½ cup (65g) flour plain / all-purpose
  • pinch salt (omit if you are using margarine)

Instructions

  1. Add the chocolate and butter in a mixing bowl and microwave for 30 second bursts until the butter melts. Leave to stand for a couple of minutes then stir so that the chocolate melts completely. Set aside.
  2. Use a balloon whisk to beat the sugar, vanilla and eggs in a separate bowl. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is frothy.
  3. Stir in the melted chocolate mixture. Sift the flour and cocoa powder into the bowl and stir until you have a smooth, glossy, thick batter with no dry pockets of flour.
  4. Spoon the batter into a greased and lined metal 8 inch pan and level. Please note if your pan is smaller or silicone instead of metal you will need to adjust the baking time.
  5. Preheat the air fryer at 330°F (165°C). Bake the brownies for 25 minutes. Take a look at the brownies – they should have a smooth shiny top and feel set at the edges. A toothpick inserted in the middle should come out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).
  6. If your brownies are not quite baked, cook for a further five minutes. Take the pan out of the air fryer and cool the brownies before slicing.
