Ingredients
- 140g butter 180g white chocolate, chopped
- 2 eggs
- 180g CSR Caster Sugar
- 50g CSR Brown Sugar
- 150g White Wings Plain Flour
- 40g ube powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 23 cm square cake tin and line with
baking paper, leaving enough overhang on the sides to lift the brownies out
once cooled.
- Place the butter and white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of
gently simmering water, making sure the base of the bowl doesn’t touch the
water. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and
allow to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg, caster sugar and brown sugar until
well combined. Slowly pour the melted butter and white chocolate mixture
into the egg mixture, whisking continuously until smooth and combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the plain flour, ube powder, salt and baking
powder. Add to the wet mixture and gently fold through with a spatula until
just combined. Add white chocolate chips, folding again.
- Spread the batter into the prepared tin and use a spatula to spread it evenly
and smooth the top. Top with extra white chocolate chips, if desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are set and a skewer inserted into
the centre comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Take care not to
over bake, as the brownies will continue to set as they cool.
- Allow to cool completely in the tin. Use the baking paper to lift the brownie
out, then cut into squares and serve.
