Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20cm (8-inch) square baking tin with baking paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add both the granulated and brown sugar, stirring until dissolved.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the cocoa powder, stirring until it is fully incorporated and smooth.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the plain flour, baking powder, and salt.

Pour the melted butter and cocoa mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and milk to the mixture, stirring until everything is just combined.

Step 7

Fold in the chopped dark chocolate pieces.

Step 8

Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking tin, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges start to pull away from the sides of the tin and the center is just set.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Once cool, cut the slice into 12 even pieces and serve. Enjoy your nut-free chocolate indulgence!
