Hints

1. Use very ripe avocados to ensure they are soft enough to be mashed easily.

2. If your avocado is a little under ripe, leave it in a brown bag with a banana overnight - this will soften it up!

3. Mash the avocado very thoroughly to ensure it disappears completely into the brownies - if you don't mash it thoroughly, you'll end up with visible lumps of avocado in your brownies.

Preparation:

Prep:

60 min

Preheat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F).

Break the chocolate into squares and place in a bowl. Microwave for a minute or two until melted, then set aside to cool a little.

Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the light brown sugar in a large bowl. Add the melted chocolate, Fine Dark Cocoa Powder, ground almonds, Madagascan Vanilla Extract, and Dr. Oetker Bicarbonate of Soda, and mix well.

In a separate bowl, thoroughly mash the avocado flesh, and add it to the chocolate mixture. Mix thoroughly.

Lightly grease and line a deep metal baking tray (measuring approximately 8 x 8 inches) with baking paper. Transfer the brownie mix to the tray, and spread it out evenly. Bake for around 35 minutes, until a cocktail stick comes out clean. Leave to cool in the pan before cutting and serving.
