Ingredients
Scale
- 100 g dark chocolate, chopped
- 125 g unsalted butter, chopped
- 175 g brown sugar
- 2 units eggs
- 100 g plain flour, sifted
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 440 g caster sugar
- 125 ml water
- 125 ml single cream
- 50 g unsalted butter
- 70 g puffed rice cereal
- 300 g dark chocolate, chopped
- 125 ml single cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Melt the chocolate and butter together in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
- Combine the sugar, eggs, flour, and cocoa in a mixing bowl along with the chocolate mixture. Mix until just blended.
- Pour the batter into a lightly greased 20cm-square cake tin lined with non-stick baking paper. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the top looks set.
- Make the caramel crunch: In a medium saucepan, combine the caster sugar and water over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Increase the heat and bring to a boil without stirring. Cook for 8–10 minutes until golden and reaches 160°C (350°F).
- Add the cream and butter to the hot caramel and mix well. Stir in the puffed rice cereal until evenly coated.
- Spread the caramel mixture over the cooled brownie base and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Prepare the ganache: Melt the chopped dark chocolate and cream over low heat until silky smooth.
- Pour the ganache over the caramel layer, ensuring it covers evenly. Allow to cool for at least 3 hours or until set.
- Slice to serve!
