Bakewell Inspired Brownies (with Berries and Almonds)

These are a really easy, fun brownie recipe to make a change from a classic. The brownies are full of chocolate, nuts and fruit for a slightly more grown up texture than the classic. That said, they are great for any age - and package up really well for snacks!

  4. Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix again. Then, add the melted chocolate and stir to combine. Add flour and cocoa powder, fold in.
  5. Stir in the add-ins: chopped chocolate, chopped almonds and berries.
  6. Pour the batter into the lined tin. Bake 30 minutes. Let cool.
  7. Finally, for optional decoration, melt the milk chocolate and drizzle over with a spoon. Add some crushed almonds, slice and serve!
