Preparation

Step 1

Start by pre-heating your oven to 160° (325° F, Gas Mark 3) and grease an 8" square tin.

Melt the butter and chocolate together in a bain marie or in a microwave.

Step 2

Meanwhile, crack the 3 eggs into a mixing bowl or food processor, and add in the golden caster sugar. Whisk or whizz on maximum speed, until the mixture becomes paler and doubles in size.

Step 3

Pour in the melted chocolate and butter mixture, and blend again to turn it a light brown.

Sift in the flour and cocoa, and whizz just enough to ensure the two mixtures are combined. If not using a processor, gently fold the sieved powders in with a wooden spoon.
