Zarbo Brownies

CHOCOLATE BROWNIES

I have to say, this is my favourite EVER recipe. You cannot go wrong with these New Zealand Zarbo brownies!!! They are perfect for ALL occasions. 

THE RECIPE

300 grams butter

300 grams dark chocolate

11/2 cups of Plain flour

1/2 cup of Cocoa

2 cups of sugar

6 eggs

2 teaspoons of vanilla essence

Sift flour and cocoa in a bowl. Set aside.

Put a heat proof bowl on top of saucepan with simmering waters. Do not let the bowl actually touch the water. Melt the butter and chocolate in the bowl, stirring constantly until melted and silky. Remove from saucepan and let cool until warm. 

In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs and sugar until thick but not too thick. Add in the vanilla and the chocolate mixture. Whisk until well combined and then pour into bowl with the flour. Fold the mixture together until well combined. 

Grease brownie pan and put in oven for 23 minutes or until cooked. I love when the brownies are a bit gooey. Tasty. 

2014

There is something about the feeling I get when I change the furniture around. 

We don't have much room, so there isn't a lot we can do but we do well with what we've got.

Reorganising is my mission for 2014. I don't want any crazy resolutions. I want to take what I've got and reorganise it. Sometimes we don't need to get rid of anything, or buy anything new, or dramatically change our life. Sometimes simply reorganising a few things is enough.

Today I accomplished a massive clean out and room change and the best feeling what sitting in our clean, reorganised room, with the lantern lights on, feeding L her bottle and reading her a story. 

Our life is pretty good and it's only going to get better.
