Ingredients

For the brownies:

  • 250g Caster Sugar
  • 75ml Vegetable Oil
  • 50ml Milk
  • 1 Medium Egg
  • 150g Plain Flour
  • 50g Cocoa Powder
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 100g Milk Chocolate Chips

Icing:

  • 50g Icing Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • A few drops of Water
  • Approx. 20 x 25cm Baking Tray, greased and lined

  

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C/200°C Fan/Gas Mark 6.
  2. In a mixing bowl whisk together the sugar, vegetable oil and milk until combined.
  3. Add the egg and whisk again.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt, then sift into the wet ingredient and fold together.
  5. Fold through the chocolate chips, then spread evenly into the prepared baking tray.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the sides are well risen but the centre is still a little soft to the touch.
  7. Allow to cool completely as the brownie is easier to carve when cold.

To decorate:

  1. Sift the icing sugar into a small mixing bowl, add the vanilla extract and a few drops of water, then mix to combine.
  2. The icing should be thick, but pipeable – add a few more drops of water, if required.
  3. Cut the brownie into 8 portions, then carve into American football shapes by trimming the corners. Flip the brownies, so the flat side of the brownie is uppermost, and pipe on the lace detail.
