Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 170 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 70 grams All-purpose flour
- 20 grams Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Macadamia nuts (halved)
- 1 piece Pre-made tart crust (9-inch)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Place a 9-inch tart pan with the pre-made tart crust on a baking sheet for ease of transfer and to catch any potential drips.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, add the semisweet chocolate chips and stir until fully combined and smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs until pale and slightly fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Gradually pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture while whisking continuously so the eggs don’t scramble. Mix until evenly combined.
Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet mixture and gently fold until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared tart crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the halved macadamia nuts evenly over the top of the brownie batter, pressing them in slightly so they adhere.
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly fudgy. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the tart from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
For an extra touch, serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
