Vegan Double Chocolate Brownies
Serves 12
“These Vegan Double Dark Chocolate Brownies aren’t trying to be anything they’re not. They won’t promise you all the nutritional benefits of a salad, or the fibre content of a bowl of porridge. They are simply bloody good brownies. Rich, dense, fudgy, and bold in their cocoa flavour. Just like a brownie should be.”

- Step 1Preheat your oven – 160 C / 140 C fan / 325 F / gas mark 3.
- Step 2Grease and line a 20 x 20cm (8 x 8in) or 20 x 30cm (8 x 12in) tin.
- Step 3Weigh out your chocolate and butter/margarine together in a heatproof bowl.
- Step 4Using either a microwave in 30 second blasts, or setting the bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, melt your chocolate and butter/margarine together until smooth
- Step 5In another large bowl, whisk together your sugar, yoghurt and vanilla.
- Step 6Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar/yoghurt bowl and mix well to combine.
- Step 7In a small bowl, stir together your flour, cocoa and salt.
- Step 8Tip this into your chocolatey mixture and stir gently until you have a sumptuously dark and smooth brownie batter.
- Step 9Pour the brownie batter into your prepared tin.
- Step 10Top the batter with buttons or broken chunks of dark dairy free chocolate.
- Step 11Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes. By this point you should be able to shake the tin without seeing a jiggle in the middle!
- Step 12Allow the brownies to cool completely in the tin. Patience isn’t fun, but it’s worth it.
- Step 13Slice your brownies into 12-20 pieces.
- Step 14Enjoy!
