Chocolate. Brownie. Cake.
It’s finally here. Lol you’ve asked for it and I delivered.
I still think I’m gonna tweak it a little bit every time I make it until it’s exactly what I want.
Here’s my 5th version. I find myself tweaking it every time I make it. I’m honestly not a big fan of baking or making baking recipes. I’ve never connected or found joy in baking. Im much more of a savory, taste as I go and tweak kind of guy!
Hope you enjoy it! Let me know what you think 🙂
Here’s the recipe.

480 grams Sugar
165 grams AP Flour

Hi Brian! My family & I are allergic to gluten and dairy, so is it possible to replace the ingredients and still achieve a similar flavor and texture? Especially the butter?
Chocolateee
I usually go for a 300 gr for sugar and beat the egg and sugar into a meringue before folding in the ganache and flour.
The outer layer after baking is closer to a meringue while inner part stays really fudgy, but requires something like an overnight at the fridge.
A little tip: use coffee instead of water. Really brings out that chocolaty flavor
Ha as someone who doesnt like super sweet things ive learned to half the sugar in every desert recipe and omit it entirely for if the desert calls for crust or crumble
Oh i cant wait to try this!!❤❤❤
Looks gorgeous. Any chance of getting the recipe with quantities.
My aunt used to bake a similar "cake" (brownie-cake?) And she added just a bit of powdered suggar on top snd it gave it a great finishing touch. She also added different types of nuts (only one type per cake) and although I didn't like it most of my family did
Is it to sweet like honey sweet because I can’t handle much honey
Made this cake today with half the amount of sugar and red wine instead of water and gotta say it was phenomenal! Still too sweet for my taste though I'll just use 100g of sugar next time and keep everything as is + wine
No hard t sound in soften. You're welcome
I'd rather have that than a slice of cake
One look made my heart melt ❤😊
😮
This is how Diabetes spreads …
Thank you for this i needed a really chocolate dessert.❤
Geez where is the recipe?. I missed that. Help!
I would brown the butter and add instant coffee only two changes I’d make ❤❤❤❤❤
Warm a piece up with a scoop of ice cream
YES
Omg, ! I want your recipe sir, its mouth watering, I wanna eat it too..tnx
That looks fantastic. I'm gonna have to try making this.
I love your nasty! I will make it for my family… i hope to not even taste it because ill eat the whole thing by myself. I say yes, my health says no😂
Stupid question here… why are you always wearing a mask?
100% can not try this. I'm not looking to become a perfectly round, 2000 pound man.
1 slice is 4800 calories
❤️
Who’s ‘we’?
❤❤❤😮😮😮😮❤❤❤ (pepper cayenne? Or cinnamon?)
Molten lava chocolate brownies…really?
instead of that splash of water you should try a shot of espresso
hi im new to baking i just wanted to ask if you preheated your oven before baking, and if you did at what temperature was it? thank you so much! love all your videos 💗
Can we sub the semi sweet for dark chocolate?
You re auch a great commentator
You dont even need to have the water boiling, because chocolate will melt in your hand (your hand is about 40 degrees celcius)
Good Lord that looks like PMS heaven 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Don’t know how I missed this post but I’ve caught up now and made this tonight. Thank you for the recipe!!
I cut down the sugar to 100 grams and used brown sugar (I did use the 70grams of powdered sugar as well). Used a teaspoon of vanilla extract and used 15ml freshly brewed espresso instead of water. Sprinkled some brown sugar and coarse sea salt on top before baking.
I totally overbaked this so it was too dry but the flavour was very nice. Served it with some Greek yoghurt. Will definitely be making this again!
Vanilla paste? Never heard of it. I know, in Europe, vanilla comes in powder form
TY 💎
HUH okay okay
Kerrygold is amazing it’s the only butter we buy. I live in Ireland and know my butters
If a gas stove heats in consistently then are your suggestions electric is better?
Several dozen shorts later i found it
I looove it when you nasty babeee
Thx for supporting my country’s butter!! 😋
Wonder how this would turn out if you made it with excellent white chocolate and Chambord, with fresh raspberries on the side for some bitterness. (A bit standard, that….and DEFINITLEY slash the sugar.) Lemon? Orange? Coconut? Brown sugar with browned butter? Lots of ingredients just waiting to be wrecked in the name of gastronomical SCIENCE!
Dam chef, honestly, I'd enjoy smashing some sick from the heart private catering with you. You have a great ability to infuse the four corners for fantastic menus. From a meat loving Chef to another great trad Chef with fusion vision . Please don't stop. Cheers from the Great White North.
I’m from the town in Ireland that KerryGold originates from it’s delicious 🙌
100% gas stoves are v consistent and offer the greatest amount of temperature control.
Why the mask? you have the flu?
❤
Sorry, is powdered sugar = icing sugar?
Thanks
