- 100g butter or margarine, softened

“Like the earthy sweetness of beetroot, find the hidden gems amidst life’s challenges.”
You will also need a 20 x 30 Baking Tin*.
Method:
- Firstly, preheat the oven to 180C/Gas Mark 4/Fan oven 160C. Grease and line a 20 x 30 baking or roasting tray.
- Break the chocolate up into small squares, put them into a microwavable bowl, cover and heat on high in the Microwave* for 2 minutes, to slightly soften them.
- Place all the ingredients into a large bowl and with a hand held electric mixer, whisk them all together for 2 to 4 minutes, until everything is amalgamated and there are no visible lumps.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking tray and bake for 40-45 minutes or until well risen all over; the middle of the brownies should feel a little soft under the centre of the crust and may wobble a bit, this is fine as they will firm up on cooling.
- Last but not least, cool completely in the tin, before cutting into squares.
Beetroot Chocolate Fudge Brownies Tip:
