Ingredients

For the Brownies

  • 250 g Butter
  • 150 g Caster Sugar
  • 250 g Dark Chocolate
  • 3 - Large Eggs
  • 225 g Self-Raising Flour
  • 125 g Soft Golden-Brown Sugar

For the Icing

  • 250 g Caster Sugar
  • 2 tbsp Espresso Granules or ground coffee
  • 2 - Large Egg Whites

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C. Grease and line a 23cm square
    baking tin with parchment paper.
  2. For the brownies, melt together the chocolate and butter over a
    bain-marie or in short 30-second microwave stints. Stir to ensure it melts evenly.
  3. Beat the sugars and eggs together briefly using a whisk. Then slowly pour in the melted chocolate mixture.
  4. Stir through the flour and then tip into your tin. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes until risen but still a little soft to touch. Leave to cool
    completely in the tin.
  5. When the brownies are cooling, you can make the topping. Add the ingredients for the icing to a heatproof bowl and set over a saucepan of simmering water.
  6. Whisk continuously until the sugar has melted, the mix has
    reached 75°C and the granules have dissolved. Keep whisking
    until it comes up to temperature.
  7. Transfer to a freestanding mixer and whisk until stiff peaks form.
  8. Once the brownies have cooled, spread over the espresso marshmallow icing.
