Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. • Grease and line the baking tin with baking paper. • Melt the butter in the microwave or in a saucepan. • Roughly chop roasted almonds.
TIP: Brownies are best if you bake them the day before serving. If you prefer your brownies with a fudgey texture, refrigerate the brownies overnight before serving, or keep them at room temperature if you like them cakey!
• Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl. • Add chocolate brownie mix, melted butter and a pinch of salt. Stir together with a wooden spoon until well combined.
• Pour brownie batter into the prepared baking tin and spread out evenly with the back of the wooden spoon. • Top with chopped almonds.
• Bake brownie for 25-28 minutes or until just firm to the touch but still a little soft in the middle.
TIP: To check if the brownies are done, stick a toothpick or skewer in the centre. It should come out with crumbs clinging. If you like your brownie more cakey and less fudgey, bake for an extra 5 minutes. TIP: The brownies will firm up more once they've cooled. Allow to cool completely in the baking tin.
• While the brownies are baking, in a medium bowl, add mixed berry compote, the sugar and the balsamic vinegar. Stir to combine and set aside. • Once the brownies have cooled, slice into squares.
• Transfer brownies to a serving plate. Top with light cooking cream and the balsamic berry compote. Enjoy!
TIP: Store any leftover brownies and berry compote in separate airtight containers.
