Delicious walnut brownie - a quick and simple dessert, perfect for any occasion Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 25-30 minutes Total time: 45 minutes Number of servings: 12 The walnut brownie is a dessert that will not only delight your taste buds, but it will also become the star of any meal. This simple recipe is ideal for those who want to prepare a delicious dessert without spending hours in the kitchen. Ingredients: - 200 g dark chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa) - 150 g butter (plus extra for greasing) - 3 large eggs - 200 g sugar - 1 packet of vanilla sugar (or vanilla essence) - 100 g flour - 100 g walnuts (ground or chopped) - 1 pinch of salt Step 1: Melting the chocolate Start by breaking the chocolate into small pieces and placing it in a heatproof bowl. Add the butter cut into cubes and place the bowl over a pot of hot water (double boiler) to melt the chocolate slowly. Stir occasionally to achieve a smooth mixture. Once the chocolate has melted, let it cool slightly. Step 2: Beating the eggs In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt, sugar, and vanilla sugar using an electric mixer. Beat until the mixture becomes frothy and light in color, about 5 minutes. This step is essential for achieving a fluffy and airy brownie. Step 3: Combining the ingredients Once the chocolate has cooled, gradually add it to the egg mixture, stirring continuously. Then, sift the flour and fold it into the mixture gently with a spatula to avoid losing air. Finally, add the walnuts and mix gently to distribute them evenly. Step 4: Baking Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a square baking pan (about 20x20 cm) with butter and line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Pour the mixture into the pan and level the surface with a spatula. Bake the brownie for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake, as the brownie should remain moist inside. Step 5: Cooling and serving Allow the brownie to cool completely in the pan before cutting it into squares. You can serve it plain or with a dusting of powdered sugar on top for an elegant look. You can also add vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra flavor boost. Variation suggestions: - You can substitute the walnuts with hazelnuts or almonds, depending on your preferences. - Add pieces of white or milk chocolate to the mixture for a brownie with different textures. - If you like more intense flavors, you can add a splash of rum or coffee essence to the mixture. By making this walnut brownie, you will not only create a delicious dessert but also impress your loved ones with your culinary skills. Enjoy every bite and savor the cooking process!
