Ingredients

  • 300g Soft brown sugar
  • 150g Dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa
  • 150g Salted butter
  • 3 Large free-range eggs
  • 3 Ripe bananas, mashed
  • 110g Self-raising flour sifted
  • 1tsp Baking powder
  • Vanilla ice cream to serve
  • 35g Melted butter
  • 40g Icing sugar
  • 120g Peanut butter
  • Handful of crushed salted peanuts for topping

Method

  • Step 1

    In another bowl beat the eggs with the ripe mashed bananas, then add it to the cooled chocolate mixture. Pour in the sifted self-raising flour and the baking powder. Don’t over stir, but make sure everything is combined and you have no traces of flour.

  • Step 2

    Pour into a greased and lined 8 x 12-inch brownie tin.

  • Step 3

    In a bowl, combine the melted butter, peanut butter and icing sugar.

  • Step 4

    Drop dollops of the salty sweet batter over the brownie mixture and draw through with a skewer or the end of a knife to create a swirly effect. Finish off the brownies by sprinkling over a handful of crushed peanuts.

  • Step 5

    Bake the brownies in the oven that’s been preheated to 180°C/Gas Mark 4 for 15-20 minutes. Once they are cooked, they should have risen a little, have a sponge-like feel and a skewer should come out almost clean.

  • Step 6

    Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
