Beetroot and chocolate brownie recipe

Makes 18 portions

You will need:

• 600g unsalted butter
• 1kg dark chocolate
• 9 eggs
• 750g soft dark brown sugar
• 150g self-raising flour
• 500g grated cooked beetroot.

Melt the butter and chocolate together in a bowl over hot water or in a microwave. If using a microwave, make sure you stir the mix every few seconds, so it does not burn.

Mix the eggs and sugar with a whisk until you get a smooth pale mixture.

Mix the butter and chocolate and eggs and sugar together.

Add the flour gradually.

Finally, add the grated beetroot.

Pour the mixture into a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper.

Cook in a fan assisted oven on 170ºC for 29 minutes. Leave to cool down before removing from the tray and slice.
