Difficulty: 
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 40 minutes
Number of servings: 12 greedy/ 18 stingy-its worth making such large portions because these brownies always disappear surprisingly quickly
Serving suggestions: Works well with double cream/chocolate or vanilla ice cream
These are very rich and not the healthiest option, however a little treat now and then is fine!
