I make the Nigella ones and put in 2 chopped up big bars of milky bar . Also I half the quantity and use a smaller tin. It's never let me down!

wolfcub the recipe is still there! You made me panic a bit there. Search "Best-ever brownies."

We love Paul Hollywood's recipe. It is in his Baking book. It contains cranberries and walnuts which really offset the dark chocolate in a lovely way.

The Nigel ones have just come out of the oven. They look immense. I'm leaving them in the tin to cool, and will treat myself to a huge one when I've come back from my run Grin

This one is the BEST!

Think it's the same as
70isalimitnotatarget and AnUtterIdiot's recipes

I've made 2 batches in the last fortnight, v popular in my house. They keep very well too.

Great as a desert - whizz in the microwave for 15-20 seconds and add schushy cream - HEAVEN!!

Oh shit, didn't read the bit about putting them in the fridge before cutting Sad
What would that have done?
They're pretty good already, would have preferred a thicker crust on the top though, but they have a very fine crisp layer and then pure gooey squidgy heaven Grin

It just makes them easier to cut. Grin

Ah okay, well they did cut absolutely fine anyway, but I've now put them in an airtight container in the fridge to be on the safe side!
DC had them still warm with a dollop of clotted cream. Yum.
