Step-by-step

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C fan/350°F/gas mark 4.
  2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in a bain marie.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar. In a slow stream, pour a couple tablespoons of the melted chocolate butter mixture into the eggs and sugar. Whisk well. This is to stop the eggs from curdling. Now add the rest of the chocolate-butter mix and really whisk thoroughly. This stage is important as the mixture can split, but by continuing to whisk, the mixture should noticeably thicken. If that doesn’t happen then you will need to blitz the mix with a hand blender to bring it back together.
  4. Use a wooden spoon to fold the flour and hazelnuts into the mixture.
  5. Line a 23 x 23cm/9 x 9in baking tray with greaseproof paper (letting a little extra hang over the sides). Pour in the mixture and bake until the brownies still wobble a bit in the centre – about 15–25 minutes.
  6. Leave to cool before cutting.
