SQUIDGY CHOCOLATE SQUARES (aka Miss Christine's brownies)

 

250 gr. good quality margarine or butter

1/2 cup bitter chocolate powder

6 eggs, lightly beaten with 1 teaspoon vanilla

3 cups white sugar

1 1/2  cups flour

a pinch of salt

chopped nuts (about 1/2 cup)

Topping

90 gr. semi sweet baking chocolate bar(Ambrosoli Pastry choc)

2 tablespoons fresh cream (Soprole, or other)

Method

Melt the butter or margarine in a medium-sized saucepan. When it is melted, turn off the gas, and add the sugar, beating all the time . Then add the bitter chocolate powder and beat well.  After this add the eggs with vanilla, the pinch of salt, the flour together with the baking powder and finally the nuts.  

Bake in a rectangular metal pan, oiled bottom and sides, with a sheet of baking paper on the bottom. Bake in a moderate oven for exactly half an hour.  Turn off the oven, leave the brownies there for ten minutes, then take the pan out and leave to cool.   

To prepare the topping, place the baking chocolate and the cream in the top of a double boiler, or a metal bowl over a saucepan with boiling water. Let melt, stirring frequently. Then pour over the brownies, and let cool. If you wish you can sprinkle silver balls or coloured sprinkles over the chocolate.  When it is cold, cut into squares with a knife dipped in boiling water.
