[jellyjelly]

Can someone share a recipe that is super easy as it is for kids and pretty good on ingrediants as i dont have much.

Have sugar, eggs, flour and a bit of chooclate

Suzywong has a brownie recipe...

Think it's this... I copied it into Word for easy reference.

A 7 or 8 inch square tin lined with greaseproof paper/baking parchment and the oven set to 180/GM4 moderate oven.

A small saucepan in to which you put

150g butter
150g chocolate, at least half of it should be plain

On a low heat and let it melt together and leave it to cool slightly

Then beat together in a bowl
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
175g caster sugar
Until creamy looking, use a hand whisk or an electric one

Then sift in
100g plain flour
1 big tablespoon of drinking chocolate
And a quarter of a teaspoon of salt

Throw in 100g walnuts
And the chocolate and butter and mix well with a spatula, but don't beat it. It should be smooth and glossy.

Scrape the batter into the lined tin and bake it for 18 minutes.

Then have a look at it, the top should be pale and opaque with a couple of cracks starting to emerge like a dried up muddy puddle. The body of the mix will still be slightly wobbly with the edges looking like ordinary cake. If it isn’t like this then leave it in for another 3 minutes or until the first cracks in the puddle surface appear.

Then leave it in the tin to cool for 20 minutes.

Not quite brownies but require no baking:

1/2 lb. (~ 1/2 a normal sized packet) digestive biscuits
1/4 lb. (~ 100g) butter or marg.
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsps golden syrup
3 tbsps cocoa
cooking choc

• Put the biscuits in a plastic bag and bash them with a rolling pin etc until they are pretty much crumbs but with the odd lump here and there.
• Melt the butter, sugar and syrup together until all the sugar has dissolved.
• Remove from the heat, add the cocoa and beat until the mixture goes shiny.
• Add the crushed biscuits and then spread the mixture out into a greased and/or lined baking tin and smooth the mixture with the back of a wooden spoon until (fairly) even.
• Melt the chocolate and spread over the top

Chill until set and cut into pieces.

Thankyou both, will make the other recipe another time mrs badger a si dont have that stuff.

thank you, soupy; the Keeper of the Brownie recipe

Actually I really need to brush up on my baking skills, I keep making muffins the kids reject, well eat the icing and hand back the sodden underbelly. Maybe it's Australian flour or my MIL's oven but I am ashamed of the things I am producing
