When it comes to biscuits, everybody has a top 3, even if bourbon biscuits aren’t on your list – they may be about to be added to that.
When it comes to brownies, adding more chocolate is only ever a good thing, right? Well these chocolate biscuits with a chocolate creme filling will only make the brownies even better – trust me.
This is my classic brownie batter, simply with a twist. So, if you like the biscuit barrel classic, the is certainly one for you to make.
For those wondering, no these biscuits don’t contain any actual bourbon.
Anyway, let’s get started, shall we?
Ingredients:
210g butter, melted.
340g granulated sugar.
3 eggs.
1.5 tsp vanilla extract.
65g cocoa powder.
150g plain flour.
100g milk chocolate chips.
100g bourbon biscuits, roughly broken.
80g Bourbon biscuit spread (or just chocolate spread).
Extra Bourbon biscuits for the top.
Method:
Before you start making anything, you’ll want to do some prep work. Start by weighing up your ingredients, preheating your oven to 180˚c/350˚f and getting any equipment you need ready such as a mixing bowl and a whisk. Don’t forget to line your 9 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
To start on the brownie batter, you’ll want to add your melted butter and cocoa powder sugar into large mixing bowl and whisk the two together until well combined.
Then go ahead and add in the granulated sugar and mix it in until it’s fully incorporated. Give the bowl a good scrape down, this is just to incorporate any bits that may not have been fully worked in.
Add your eggs and mix until they are fully incorporated. As the eggs are incorporated, the mixture will become smoother and glossier. You will also want to add in the vanilla extract in at this stage.
After that you can add in the plain flour, chocolate chips and Bourbon biscuits and fold those in using a spatula, this will lower the chances of over mixing the brownie batter. Once your brownie batter is ‘clear’ from any single ingredient, stop mixing.
Go ahead and grab your lined baking tray and transfer the brownie batter directly into it. Spread and level it out as you need, place on top as many or as few bourbon biscuits as you’d like, then place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, it should be a little more baked around the edges and a little softer in the centre.
Once the brownies are baked, leave them in the tin and let them cool fully. Then place in the fridge overnight, this helps to make the brownies extra dense and easier to cut up – this isn’t essential but really helps.
When you’re ready to slice the brownies up, you can cut them up into however many pieces you wish. I cut mine into squares, that way you get the most out of each brownie – the dense, fudgey and biscuity goodness. The more sweet treats the better – don’t even try to disagree.
