Vegan Chocolate and Hazelnut Brownies

Ingredients:

5 tbsp margarine
1 cup cocoa powder (or dark chocolate bits)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup hazelnuts
1/2 chocolate chips
2 tbsp baking powder
1 cup water

Method:

  • Melt the margarine and cocoa powder/ dark chocolate bits together on very low flame. (It's better if you don't heat it directly and instead, melt them through steam boiling. Basically, in a pan, heat some water and over the boiling water, put another pan, in which you melt the margarine and cocoa powder/ dark chocolate bits.)
  • Once they have melted and mixed well, add brown sugar and mix well.
  • Take the pan off the heat and add all the other ingredients. Mix well until it forms a batter like cake batter, falling in folds.
  • Line a rectangle shallow cake tin with baking paper and pour the batter in it. Make sure that it is not concentrated only in certain places. If needed, level it out with a spoon.
  • Bake in a pre-heated oven for about 40-50 minutes.
  • As soon as it is done and you get it out of the oven, cut in square pieces. 
  • You may serve it just like that or with ice-cream and chocolate sauce.
