Recipe's preparation

    Brookie method. preheat oven to 170C
  1. BROOKIE = BROwnie + coOKIE

  2. Roughly break up 350 grams of 70% dark chocolate, 5 SECS / SP 7. ( see note below, as per BCB guidleines, no more than 200 grams at a time. )

    ( Grate 200gms, transfer to a seperate bowl, then grate a further 150 gms, then re add the 200 gms back to the bowl. )

  3. Add 45 grams of butter, roughly chopped

    Mix 4 MINS / 50C / SP 2.5.

    Stop once or twice during the first 2 mins to scrape chocolate down to the bottom of the bowl.

    When finished, and completely melted and combined, transfer to another bowl for later.

  4. Combine all other cookie ingredients into the bowl. ( do not include the garnish chocolate ),

    15 SECS / SP 3.

    Scrape down the bowl

    10SECS / SP 4.

    Transfer bowl ingredients to the bowl containing the liquid chocolate

  5. Combine all the ingredients togehter using a spatula, work quickly to ensure you combine. When the mixture is soft, like a dough, ( not runny or set firm again, if the mixture stays on the spatula when held upside down ) spoon 3/4 of a tablespoon of mixture onto a lined baking tray. Little blobs are great, no need to squash down. If mixture is still runny after combining, wait a little time for it to start to firm before you spoon mixture.

  6. Press some dark chocolate bits, or milk if you prefer onto the top of each Brookie.

  7. Place in the preheated oven for 12 mins, keep an eye on them. I check with a metal skewer around that time. As soon as a skewer comes out clean I take them out.

    Allow to cool for a few minutes on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to completely cool.

    Serve Craigs Brookies, topped with a little extra grated chocolate, or make an ice cream sandwich with two of them !

     

Tip

This recipe has been recreated with inspiration from a Masterchef challenge, from contestant Harry

PLEASE ONLY USE 70% COCOA DARK CHOCOLATE, this recipe will not work with milk or white choc, due to it being a compound choc, and they low cocoa content and high fat and sugars. You cannot substitute the dark choc 

Pre prepare all other ingredients into a bowl and have eggs cracked into a seperate bowl, ready to go.

Once you add all ingredients together the chocolate temp will begin to lower, and start to return to a solid.

I feel you get a much better consistency when you combine the chocolate mixture and all other ingredients into a mixing bowl and fold and combine with a spatula by hand.

 

As per instructions in the front of the BCB, please only grate the chocolate in amounts no greater than 200gms, so for this recipe, the chocolate will need to be grated in 2 batches.

To keep the recipe truly gluten free, use good quality pure chocolate chips for the top of the Brookies, not compound chocolate, and a gluten free baking powder product ( Anchor Brand )

I have made a video tutorial which you can watch here

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Chocolicious Smile I was a bit daunted by the length of the instructions but they were actually quite easy. I also didn't want 24 but this recipe is easily divided by a third so all perfect for me.

    These are simply AMAZING! Decedant and such an indulgence.
    The key is to make sure you keep stiring waiting for it to thicken - had no issues with the mixture at all.

    EASY, DELICIOUS DESSERT!

    I have made this recipe before but forgot to post a comment. So when I made these again for dessert last night I simpy had to snap a picture and share the creation!

    The recipe is very simple to follow. Reading some of the reviews, I think the possible mistake people are making is not letting the mixture thicken a little once everything is combined. I had no problems with my mixture being runny or spreading while cooking.
    Fabulous recipe - thanks for sharing!

    Mushroomring: Same for me, what did I do wrong - twice

    Me too

    Complete and utter failure although it tasted amazing. Cookies turned into one large spread out pancake! I tried adding more flour but that made no difference - what did I do incorrectly!

    These were the best, I used 90% chocolate and reduced the sugar but 59 gems, still amazing. I prefer it a little bitter. Kids loved them too. Thanks heaps for sharing
