Raspberry and White Chocolate Cheesecake Brownies

These tasty brownies are dense and rich.  You’ll think you can only eat one but before you know it you’ll have had several…

These brownies are based on the mint ones I made last week (I seem to have a bit of a brownie ‘thing’ at the moment).  They are chewy and moist but slightly crispy on the top and very delicious!

I’m having a bit of a mint chocolate craving at the moment so following on from the Grasshopper Squares I made last week I have now made some mint chocolate brownies.  I’m entering this into the The Great Denby Cake Off blogging competition.

Chocolate Brownies with Dark and White Chocolate Chips

Chocolate Brownies with Dark and White Chocolate Chips

I have made these brownies (and the Blueberry Blondies in the next post) and for a big family gathering,  We are all bringing something to share and I am in charge of cake!

Cream together light brown sugar and butter.

Beat in some eggs.

Then fold in cocoa, plain flour, baking powder and white and dark chocolate chips – or in this case chopped up chocolate.

Smooth it into a lined baking tin.

And bake until it is firm round the edges and just slightly wobbly in the middle.  Leave in the tin to cool and then cut into pieces.

Chocolate Brownies

These are a favourite of my children.  My youngest one is finishing primary school this week and goes to an after school club there.  He wanted to take some brownies to share with the other children and also give to the teachers for a gift.

First I creamed together soft, light brown sugar and butter.

Then I beat in the eggs and folded in some plain flour, baking powder and cocoa.  Once these were all well combined I added some chopped up dark chocolate for extra flavour.  If you prefer you can add white or milk chocolate, dried cherries, fresh raspberries or a combination of these.

On this occasion I made extra mixture so I had enough for one big tray of brownies and 3 smaller ones to give as gifts.  The trays for the smaller gift brownies are made of coated cardboard and can be used to bake the brownies – they are excellent.

The finished brownies have a glossy slightly crunchy top with a moist sticky inside – yum!
