Decadent Dark Chocolate Truffle Brownies!

Our Bite size dark chocolate truffle brownies have been voted the best reason to squander your entire daily calorie allowance on something sinful! Here's the recipe, I know you'll thank me.

1/2 pound unsalted butter
1/2 pound semi sweet chocolate chips
3oz unsweetened chocolate chips
3 eggs
1 1/2 TB spoons Instant coffee granules
1 TB spoon vanilla essence (the real stuff)
1 cup sugar
1 1/8 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 TB spoon baking powder
1/2 tspoon kosher salt
6 oz chocolate chips (in addition to the first lot)
1/8 cup flour

Pre-heat oven 350 degrees
Butter & flour 6x9x1 baking pan

1. melt together the butter, 1/2 pound choc chips & 3oz unsweetened choc chips in a medium bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Allow to cool slightly.

2. In another larger bowl, stir together the eggs, coffee granules, vanilla essence & sugar.

3. stir in the slightly warm chocolate mix - don't over mix.

4. Sift together the 1/2 cup of flour, baking powder & salt & add to mixture.

5. Toss the remaining 6oz of chocolate chips with 1/8 cup of flour & gently stir into the chocolate mix (you want to try and keep these chips from melting)

6. Pour into baking pan and bake for approx 25 mins. Or until a tooth pick comes out clean. Don't overbake! Allow to cool. Refrigerate. We cut ours with a small heart shaped cookie cutter & place in mini cup cake cases to serve.
