Ingredients

  • 125 g Butter See notes
  • 100 g 70% dark chocolate See notes
  • 50 g Milk chocolate See notes
  • 150g g Soft light brown sugar
  • 2 Eggs
  • 90 g Plain flour
  • Zest of an orange See notes
  • 2 Terry's Chocolate Oranges See notes

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180c/350F.
  • Line a baking tray with baking paper (I used a 25x25cm tin).
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan on a very low heat.
  • When it's starting to melt, add in the dark chocolate, milk chocolate and the sugar. Stir until it's all melted together.
  • Once melted, remove from the heat and leave to cool for 5-10 minutes. 
  • Beat in each egg, one by one.
  • Stir in the flour. 
  • Chop one-and-a-half of the Terry's Chocolate Oranges into large chunks and stir into the brownie batter, along with the orange zest.
  • Pour into your baking tin and top with the remaining Chocolate Orange segments.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are just solid but the middle still has a little wobble. Don't overbake them!
  • Ovens do vary so don't be alarmed if you recipe takes that little bit longer. Brownies are better under-done than over. 
  • Allow to cool COMPLETELY before cutting up (if you can bare it!)

Notes

Butter: Please do use butter (not margarine) if you can help it, the taste and texture will be much better. If you have a dairy allergy or similar and need to substitute, it will work (obviously you'll need to change up the chocolate too) but you might need to adjust the cooking time a little depending on the consistency of the spread you use.
Orange zest: You can substitute (or add in too) 1 tsp of orange extract or oil if you'd like to for added flavour.
Terry's Chocolate Oranges: These are the 157g/5.5oz regular size ones. If you can only get another size, just use about 300g/10.5oz worth. If you can't get Terry's Chocolate Oranges, you can substitute any other chocolate and add in Orange Extract as mentioned above.
Be careful not to overbake: Don’t overbake your brownies - cook until only just set.
Cool down: Be sure to let your Chocolate Orange Brownies cool down fully before cutting. 
Type of tin to use: I use a square one like this one as it gives the right amount of depth.
Best kind of chocolate to use: I try to use my favourite Callebaut chocolate for this recipe. This chocolate is just amazing. This recipe use a mixture of very dark chocolate and milk chocolate for a good balance of flavour. I wouldn’t recommend only using milk chocolate as they won’t be dense/fudgy in the same way. A slightly different ratio if you don’t have enough of either will be fine though!
Line your tin: I use baking parchment or baking paper for almost all of my bakes and cakes. It means no sticking, ever.
