One Bowl Chocolate Brownies
I have been going through a bit of a brownie craze recently and thought I would share this easy recipe with you. But the best part is there is hardly any washing up to do!!
Introducing the One Bowl Brownie!!
Serve it up with a warm chocolate ganache sauce and ice cream!! Instead of adding crushed nuts or whole nuts, I prefer to add them ground or a fine meal but it’s all up to you!!

On low heat, heat the cream in a pot until the rim of the pot begins to bubble with cream, stirring continuously. Remove from heat and stir through the chopped chocolate until dissolved.
