Chocolate Brownie with Raspberry Coulis

I'm back, hope you all had a good Christmas and New Years. Probably the worst post as its probably going against people new years resolutions but I don't do resolutions.  This was a recipe I made for my friends and they all loved it. Serve with good quality vanilla ice cream.

Serves 6

Chocolate Brownie
100g Butter, cubed (easier to melt)
175g Caster Sugar
2 ½ tsp Nutella
100g Dark Chocolate
50g Milk Chocolate
2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
2 Eggs
½ tsp Baking Powder 
100g Plain Flour

Raspberry Coulis
250g Raspberries
2 tbsp Caster Sugar

1. You can do the raspberry coulis in advance. Put the raspberries in a pan over a low heat with the sugar, stir and heat until the raspberries break down. For a smoother taste put in a blender and strain through sieve.

2. Line a 20cm cake tin with greaseproof paper. Preheat the oven to 180c/160 Fan assisted.

3. Heat some water in a pan and put a bowl over the top. Then add the butter, til melted. Add both chocolate until melted. Then combine the nutella. Finally add the sugar. Take off the heat and let it cool for a bit.

4. Add the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder. Then add the eggs and mix well till the mixture is combined.

5. Pour into the cake tin and put in the oven for 25-30 minutes till it's cooked all the way through. Stick a skewer or toothpick through the centre, it should come out clean.

6. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes, Remove from cake tin and cut into 6 slices. Serve with coulis and ice cream.
