Pretzel Brownies

Makes 20-30 Brownies Prep Time 16 minutes   Cook Time 40 minutes   Rated:

WELL, well well. What have we here? This amazing brownie appeared in our Bakers Dozen calendar a long long time ago now and here it is in all its salty sweet glory for the IC. This recipe has 1/2 kilo of Belgian chocolate in it, so really cannot go wrong. Use the best chocolate you can access and never look back.

It is my go to Brownie recipe that I use to base other recipes on these days. So if it looks familiar that would be why. SO delicious. So more-ish, keeps for ages because of all that chocolate. My suggestion however is to make the bad chocolate brownie go away by gifting it quickly. You simply will eat it all otherwise.

Don't say I didn't warn you!

Or try some of our other brownies, they never disappoint:

Cappuccino Brownies

Aztec Brownies

Pepperminty Brownies

Banoffee Brownies

Salted Caramel Brownies

Fudgey Raspberry Brownies

1  

Preheat the oven to fan forced 160°C (or 180°C if not fan forced.)

2  

Butter and line a 30cm x 25cm tin and set aside.

3  

Place the eggs, sugar and maple syrup into the Thermomix bowl and whip 6 min/37°C/Butterfly/speed 3/MC off.

4  

Scrape mixture out into a separate bowl OR, use a second Thermomix bowl.

5  

Place the butter in pieces, chocolate and vanilla bean paste into the Thermomix bowl and melt 10 min/50°C/speed 1. Stop part way through to scrape down the sides of the bowl and to make sure the chocolate is all beneath the blades.

9  

Bake 20 minutes, turn the tin and bake a further 15-20 minutes.
