Recipe Source: Fondbites Bake Along

Ingredients:

118 gm unsalted butter

135 gm dark chocolate

2 large eggs

95 gm brown sugar

95 gm brown sugar, powdered

68 gm fresh cream

75 gm all purpose flour

68 gm almond meal

1/2 cup silvered almonds, toasted

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degree celcius. Grease a non stick brownie pan with butter and flour or line a cake pan with aluminium foil and butter the foil.
2. In a heavy bottomed saucepan, add butter and dark chocolate and heat it on medium flame and keep stirring until the butter and chocolate are melted completely. Keep it aside.
3. In a large bowl or in the bowl of electric mixer, add eggs, brown sugar and powdered brown sugar.
4. Beat it on medium high speed for 5 minutes until the mixture becomes pale, thick and gets frothy.
5. Pour the butter-chocolate mixture slowly and gently, into the eggs mixture as the beater keeps running on slow speed and beat for 1 minute until the mixture gets fully incorporated.
6. Add the cream into the bowl and beat again for few seconds on medium speed until the cream gets incorporated.
7. Add all purpose flour, almond meal and the silvered almonds into the bowl and beat on slow speed just until incorporated. Do not over beat.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and top them with some of the silvered almonds and tap gently to release any major air pockets.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the brownies are springy back to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Remove from the oven and serve warm...
