Chocoholic Brownies

On some days, I have strong urge to have something sweet, something chocolate-y~ So, I baked this Chocolate Chip Brownies yesterday for a feel-good-but-sinful-to-the-body treats! (^_^)

I've just alter a tiny bit of the original recipe. It is simple to make, easy, and does not require any butter. However, I strongly recommend to line the base of the greased pan with wax or parchment paper for easier removal.

Chocoholic Brownies

Makes : 16 squares

Ingredients:

150g semisweet chocolate, chopped and at room temperature

1 tbsp milk

120ml sunflower oil ( I used Canola Oil)

215g light brown sugar (I substituted with 100g brown sugar + 70g castor sugar)

2 large eggs

5 ml vanilla essence

65g self-raising flour

4 tbsp cocoa powder

4 tbsp milk chocolate chips

Method:

1) Preheat oven to 180degree C. Lightly grease a 19cm/8inch square pan. Lined with parchment paper.

2) Pour in the milk and melt chocolate by double boiling. (Melt chopped chocolate in a pan above a pot of simmering boiling water.) Use a spatula to stir the melting chocolate.

3) Combine oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla essence in the mixer bowl. Beat till combined with an electric mixer.

4) Stir in melted chocolate. Beat till evenly mixed.

5) Sift flour and cocoa powder into batter.

6) With a spatula, fold in flour mixture until it incorporates into the batter.

7) Stir in chocolate chips. Mix well.

8) Pour mixture into the prepared square pan. Spread mixture evenly to the edges. (Mixture should be sticky and gooey)

9) Bake for 30-35 minutes till top is firm and crusty. Cool completely in pan before cutting into smaller squares.
