Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Dark chocolate
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 200 grams Mincemeat (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a square 20cm (8-inch) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy brownie removal.
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate together over a pot of simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, then remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
Whisk the sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the mixture until just combined.
Add the mincemeat to the brownie batter and stir gently to distribute it evenly.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Dust the top with powdered sugar if desired. Slice into 9 squares and serve.
