Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (150° fan)/325 F/ gas 3 and oil and line a 20cm x 20cm/ 8”x 8” square cake tin.
- Melt the chocolate, cocoa and butter together in a saucepan, then leave to cool a little.
- Whisk the sugar and eggs together with an electric whisk for 3 minutes.
- Pour in the chocolate mixture and sieve over the flour, then fold everything together with chopped peanuts until evenly mixed.
- Scrape into the tin and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the outside is set, but the centre is still quite soft, as it will continue to cook as it cools.
- Leave the brownie to cool completely in the tin.
- Put the butter, cream, golden syrup and brown sugar in a small saucepan and boil for 2 minutes, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
- Pour the caramel over the brownie and leave to set in the fridge until firm.
- Melt the chocolate in a microwave or brain marie and pour over the caramel layer.
- Scatter over the peanuts and cut into 12 slices.
