INGREDIENTS
- 200 g butter plus extra for greasing
- 180 g dark chocolate 70% cocoa solids
- 180 g milk chocolate 40% cocoa solids
- 397 g can of caramel
- 1 tsp Maldon Sea Salt Flakes plus extra for garnish
- 200 g golden caster sugar
- 4 medium eggs at room temperature
- 130 g plain flour
- 50 g cocoa powder
INSTRUCTIONS
-
Preheat your offset smoker to 175°C/350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter and line it with parchment paper.
-
In a castiron pan, melt the butter, dark chocolate, and milk chocolate together, stirring occasionally until smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
-
Stir in the caramel and Maldon Sea Salt Flakes until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the caster sugar and eggs until light and fluffy.
-
Gradually fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until just combined.
-
Sift in the plain flour and cocoa powder, gently folding until no streaks of flour remain.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
-
Place the baking pan in the preheated offset smoker and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
-
Remove the brownies from the smoker and sprinkle with extra Maldon Sea Salt Flakes while still warm.
-
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
NOTES
Store any leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, although they're unlikely to last that long once you've experienced their irresistible allure!
