Jill's Recipe: Darcie’s Toy Story Chocolate Brownie Cake

This recipe as its printed makes 24 squares. I doubled the recipe and used 2 tins

Ingredients

o 360g Bournville plain chocolate (2 x 180g packets) broken into pieces

o 225g butter, cubed, plus extra for greasing

o 225g light muscovado sugar

o 4 eggs, beaten

o 75g self-raising flour

o 1 tsp vanilla extract

o 75g chocolate chips

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180°C/150°C Fan/Gas 4. Grease and line a 30 x 23cm (12 x 9in) traybake tin with non-stick baking paper.

Place the chocolate and butter in a large heatproof bowl. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water until melted. I use a steamer.

Stir to combine.

Remove from the heat and add the sugar and eggs. Mix well until smooth, then add the flour and vanilla and mix again. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 40 minutes, until well risen and set around the edges, with a slightly soft centre.

Decoration:

I sandwiched the 2 slabs together using Nutella. You could use any filling of your choice – I decorated using an edible cake topper ordered from Amazon. The sides are chocolate buttons and the figures are plastic – non edible Toy Story figures.
