Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dessert

Time 45m

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

250g wholemeal spelt flour
75g cocoa powder
125g dark brown soft sugar
125g 0% fat Greek yogurt
125g rapeseed oil
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp instant coffee granules, mixed with 350ml boiling water
100g dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa solids), broken into pieces
2 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
150g 0% fat Greek yogurt
16 walnuts, roughly chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line a 20cm square tin with baking parchment. Mix the flour, cocoa and sugar, breaking up any clumps of sugar.
  • Combine the yogurt, oil, syrup, vanilla and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix. Stir the baking powder into the coffee, pour this in and quickly mix to make a smooth batter (see tip, below). Pour into the tin and bake for 35 mins until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out with just a few crumbs attached.
  • Leave to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. To make the frosting, melt the chocolate in 10-second bursts in the microwave. Beat in the syrup, vanilla, yogurt and 1 tbsp boiling water to loosen, if needed. Spread over the cake and leave to set for at least 30 mins, then cut into 16 squares. Dot over the walnuts, if using. Will keep for three days in an airtight container at room temperature, or up to five days in the fridge.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE SKOR SQUARES



Double Chocolate Skor Squares image

This is an easy five ingredient recipe. Toffee and chocolate on an oreo crumb base, what could be better? Note: skor bits come in a bag like chocolate chips, they are basically toffee mini-chips. I don't think this is the same as a chopped up skor bar...

Provided by _Pixie_

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 25m

Yield 25 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (300 ml) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup Skor English toffee bit
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used mini ones)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Spray a 9" square pan with cooking spray.
  • Mix 2 tablespoons of the butter with the condensed milk in a large microwaveable bowl.
  • Mix the remaining butter with the oreo crumbs and press into the prepared pan.
  • Microwave the condensed milk for 5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds (don't leave the microwave while this is in there).
  • Warning: make sure your bowl has enough room for this to expand 5-6 times the original volume as it boils up (either that or be prepared to stir every 10 seconds or so to prevent boil overs).
  • Stir in the skor bits and spread over the oreo base (don't expect them to melt at this point, they won't).
  • Bake for 12 minutes.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over top of squares and return to the turned off oven for 1-2 minutes until just melted.
  • Spread the chocolate to make a smooth topping.
  • Cool and cut into 25 squares while still slightly warm.

Tips:

  • Ensure your oven is correctly preheated before baking, as accurate temperature is crucial for even cooking.
  • Use room-temperature butter for optimal creaming and smooth batter texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use high-quality chocolate chips or chopped chocolate for the best flavor and texture. Consider using a combination of semisweet and bittersweet chocolate for a rich and complex taste.
  • For a gooey center, remove the brownies from the oven when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, indicating that the center is slightly undercooked.
  • To achieve a crispy edge and gooey center, bake the brownies for a few minutes longer until the edges start to pull away from the pan.
  • Give your brownies sufficient time to cool before slicing and serving. This allows them to set properly and develop their full flavor.
  • Enhance the presentation of your brownies by dusting them with powdered sugar, drizzling chocolate ganache, or adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • For variation, consider adding chopped nuts, dried fruits, or even a layer of caramel or peanut butter between the brownie layers.
