Ingredients

  • 70g Clover plus extra for greasing
  • 25kg Dark chocolate (no more than 50% cocoa solids), broken up
  • 1 medium egg beaten
  • ½tsp Vanilla extract
  • 60g Golden caster sugar
  • 25g Plain flour sifted
  • 1tbsp Cocoa powder
  • ½tsp Baking powder
  • 6tbsp Half fat crème fraîche
  • 150g Fresh raspberries
  • Icing sugar for dusting

Method

  • Step 1

    Grease and line the base of a heart shaped tin measuring about 9cm.

  • Step 2

    Put the Clover and chocolate in a large bowl over a pan of just-simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Leave for 4-5 minutes to melt, remove from the heat and stir until smooth.

  • Step 3

    Add all the other ingredients to the bowl and mix well. Tip the mixture into the tin and level the surface. Bake for 25 minutes or until risen and firm around the edges but a little soft in the centre. Cool in the tin for 15 minutes. The brownie will continue to cook as it cools.

  • Step 4

    Mix together the crème fraîche and raspberries, lightly crushing the raspberries. Serve the cooled brownies with a serving of the raspberry crème fraîche.
