How much do you ....

200g Chocolate for melting
150g Chocolate for chunks
250g Sugar
225g Butter
110g Flour
3 Eggs
1 tablespoon Baking Powder

1. Melt the Chocolate in a Bain Marie (thats a bowl over a saucepan of boiling water for those of you who don't watch far too much Master Chef).
2. Add the butter to the Bain Marie and stir til melted and mixed and glossy and it looks like you want to drink it.
3. Lightly beat the eggs in a seperate bowl and then remove the bowl of chocolatey goodness from the heat. Add the eggs and mix.
4. Stir in the sugar.
5. Sieve the flour and baking powder and fold until completely mixed .
6. Mix in the chocolate chunks (if there's any left, they're just so tempting sitting there all tasty and there).
7. Pour mixture into a lined baking tin and cook for approximately 25 minutes in an oven at 180 degrees.
8. When done, remove from tin and place on a wire tray to cool before cutting. (This is where I get all teacher-like. They're actually better when they've cooled a bit, so try be strong and wait. And if you don't, at least have a big scoop of vanilla icecream with it)

It's kinda important that you use really nice dark chocolate. I always use Bournville.

One chunk for the Brownie, one for Joanne...
