Chocolate Brownies

“La vita è un carnevale”. How true…

It is the week of the Carnival. School holidays, delicious sweets and colourful street processions. It is still amazing to me how the Catholic church could have ever allowed such extravagant celebrations through the medieval centuries. Yet, thankfully the tradition carries on as nothing could be more exuberant than welcoming the new spring life with this joyous, vivid masquerade.

Speaking of joyous and exuberant, at home we are not falling too far behind. We are marking the season, by indulging in these delicious salted Rolo brownies, using the recipe from the February edition of the Delicious Magazine. The chocolate brownies are a delight on their own, crunchy on the top and mellow and gooey from the inside. But there is more… secrete ingredients that make them springing to life with a touch of sea salt and soaring to the sky by adding Rolo chocolate candies filled with chewy caramel. Hmmm… irresistible combination! Ready to give in to temptation? Or perhaps, looking for a luxurious dessert that will completely stun your guests? Served warm or cold, with fresh raspberries and vanilla ice-cream or just as it is on its own, for a special occasion of as a simple treat, this is a dessert that will indulge your senses and always make you smile.

  • 100g plain dark chocolate (70 per cent cacao)
