Brownies with Daim
These yummy, chocolatey brownies are filled with crunchy pieces of the incredible Swedish caramel candy Daim. They're so easy to make and just absolutely DELICIOUS!
Ingredients
- 113 grams (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 160 grams (3/4 cup) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 100 grams chocolate, melted (about 1 bar or 3/4 cup chocolate chips)
- 70 grams (1/2 cup) all purpose flour
- 25 grams (1/4 cup) cocoa powder
- Pinch of salt
- 16 small Daim candies (about 100g)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 F (176 C).
- Melt your butter over medium-low heat and continue cooking until the milk solids start to turn a golden color. Remove from the heat because they will continue to brown!
- Add the granulated sugar to the browned butter and whisk for about 30 seconds to combine. Let this cool for a few minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, salt)
- Chop up the daim candies into smaller pieces.
- Transfer the butter and sugar mixture to a medium mixing bowl. Melt the chocolate either on the stove or in the microwave. Add in the vanilla extract and melted chocolate and whisk well to combine.
- Add the eggs to the chocolate mixture one at a time, whisking to combine. Make sure the mixture isn't too hot so your eggs don't scramble!
- Start folding in your dry ingredients until well combined. Note: If your batter looks split or lumpy, you can add a little more flour to bring it back together! Add in the chopped candies and fold those in as well.
- Transfer to a parchment lined and greased baking tin (ours was a 9in x 6in glass baking pan).
- Bake for about 30 minutes until a knife comes out mostly clean (it will have some crumbs stuck to it, as fudgy brownies shouldn't be totally set in the middle!). Let cool before slicing and enjoy!
