Easy Easter Baking - My Chocolate Brownie Recipe
Easter is the season for chocolate, but who says it must be in the shape of an egg or a bunny? Perfect for the school holidays - here is my favourite chocolate brownie recipe.
It's also the time of year when the kids are at home, and sometimes you just need to keep them entertained, even if it's only for 10 minutes. If they end up with a treat they made themselves, it's a win-win situation, in my opinion.
I've been making this brownie for over 20 years, and many people have asked for the recipe, but this is the first time I'm sharing it with anyone. It's a true crowd-pleaser—it has all the classic qualities of a good brownie: it's fudgy, it's decadent, and it's gluten-free as well.
So, Easy Easter Baking - My Chocolate Brownie Recipe... let's get into it.
