Easy chocolate brownie recipe

  • 400g chocolate spread
  • 210g plain flour
  • 3 eggs

Make sure to grease your oven tray and add a little flour at the bottom to stop it sticking, and pour your mixture in. 

Pop it into your pre-heated oven at 175c for 25 to 35 minutes, and check they're done by pricking the middle with a toothpick, and when it comes out clean it's time to come out the oven.

When they’re ready simply cut into squares and leave to cool before eating.
