Chocolate Brownies

We were invited to a barbecue today and I offered to make cheesecake. When it came to making it though I realised that I’d actually left the base of the tin at my mum’s place so we had to improvise.

I originally made these particular brownies in June of last year and took them in to work, they were devoured in minutes (as anything sugary or chocolatey usually is!) so figured they must have been pretty good and therefore suitable for taking to friends. The added bonus with these particular brownies is that they’re really simple and quick to make. Not quick enough however as we stupidly decided to run loads of errands in the morning and got stuck in the Sunday morning DIY traffic. No matter though as we simply made up the mixture and took it with us to be baked at our friend’s place later on.

I think they were a hit, everyone seemed to enjoy them and there were only a couple left at the end of the day. I did cook them for slightly too long though but I blame our friend’s fancy oven for being too hot!
