RECIPE BY: Holgate Brewhouse

Prep: 30 minutes / Bake: 30 minutes  / Serves: 8

Ingredients

  • 330ml bottle of Temptress
  • 170g unsalted butter
  • 250g dark chocolate
  • 3 Free Range Eggs
  • 225g caster sugar
  • 125g plain flour
  • 30g cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp fine salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp espresso powder (optional)
  • 8 tbsp double cream

Method

  1. Bring the Temptress to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to medium heat and allow to simmer until reduced down to 2/3 cup, about 20 – 22 minutes. Set aside to cool for at least 10 minutes
  2. Preheat the oven to 175°C. Grease square baking pan (or line with parchment)
  3. Place the butter and chopped chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30 second increments, whisking after each, until completely smooth. Whisk in the sugar and ½ cup of reduced Temptress until completely combined. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract. Finally, whisk in the flour, salt and espresso powder (if using). The batter will be thick and shiny. Pour/spread evenly into prepared pan
  4. Bake for 32 minutes, then test the brownies with a toothpick to see if cooked
