Delicious Chocolate Brownies


If you have done something bad, and are looking for forgiveness, then, you have come to the right place, I dont think anyone could resist, I am posting this as I have been a very bad blogger, and I thought this would redeem myself as I havent been posting recipes for a while... therefore I am posting these forgiveness Chocolate Brownies, they are delicious, moist, soft and goo-ey.

1/2 cup of oil
2 large freerange eggs

Preheat oven to 160 Degrees Celcuis.

Melt the margerine, add to a bowl and add water, oil and eggs and mix with a hand blender.
Add all the dry ingredients to a bown and mix, then add all the wet ingredients into the dry and mix again, until you have a very smooth mixture.

*** you can add half a cup on pecan nuts (finely chopped) if you like.

Add this mixture to a 20cm x 20cm baking dish, which is lined with greese proof paper,
and bake for 35 minutes.

After baking, turn out the brownie onto a cooling rack, and allow to cool completely.

Now make the Chocolate Icing

White Chocolate Mousse



Be prepared for lots of whipping...This is good for when you have had a really bad day, you get to whip something and eat chocolate... hehehe...

Ingredients:

350 ml Cream
150 gm White Chocolate
4 Egg Whites
2 Tbs of Sugar



Heat the cream over medium heat just until it boils.
Take cream off the heat.
Add chocolate in a medium bowl.
Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and whip until melted and smooth and cool down completely in the refrigerator

When it has cooled, whip it into fluffy, soft peaks. Return to the refrigerator.

Then whip the egg whites until soft peaks form, then add  2 Tablespoons of sugar and continue whipping until glossy and stiff.

Lastly, you need to combine the two by folding the egg whites into the white chocolate mixture, and then spoon the mixture into glasses, I have used the Martini Glasses again as it looks so nice, I grated some white chocolate over the top aswell
