Wood Fired Oven
Method
MELT THE CHOCOLATE AND BUTTER
Place the butter and chocolate in a Kadai Frying Pan over low heat, stirring occasionally until melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt in short microwave bursts, stirring between each one. This base is what gives your woodfired chocolate brownies their signature richness and glossy finish. Set aside to cool slightly.
PREPARE THE OVEN AND DISH
Light your Kadai and position the Wood Fired Oven on top, allowing it to reach a steady medium heat. Grease a Kadai Oven Dish with butter and line with baking paper — ready for your Easter chocolate brownies to bake evenly.
WHISK THE EGGS AND SUGAR
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and golden caster sugar using an electric mixer for 5–8 minutes until pale, thick, and doubled in volume. This creates the soft, fudgy texture classic to woodfired Easter chocolate brownies.
COMBINE WITH CHOCOLATE
Pour the cooled chocolate mixture over the whisked eggs and sugar. Gently fold together with a spatula until smooth and just combined, creating a glossy, rich brownie batter.
ADD THE DRY INGREDIENTS
Sift the flour and cocoa powder into the bowl and fold again carefully, taking care not to overmix. The result should be thick and velvety, perfect for slow baking in the Wood Fired Oven.
BAKE THE BROWNIES
Pour the batter into the prepared Oven Dish and level the top. Slide into the Wood Fired Oven and bake for about 20 minutes, letting the smoky heat infuse your woodfired chocolate brownies with gentle depth.
PREPARE THE TOPPINGS
While baking, halve the Creme Eggs and lightly crush some of the Mini Eggs with a pestle and mortar. Leave a few whole for decoration, these add both texture and colour to your Easter chocolate brownies.
ADD TOPPINGS AND FINISH BAKING
Remove the brownies after 20 minutes. Gently press in the halved Creme Eggs, cut side up, and scatter half the crushed Mini Eggs over the surface. Return to the oven for a final 5 minutes to let everything melt together.
COOL AND CHILL
Top with the remaining Mini Eggs, then leave to cool completely in the dish. Transfer to the fridge for 1 hour to firm up, this gives your woodfired Easter chocolate brownies the perfect chewy centre.
SERVE
Lift from the dish, cut into squares, and decorate with Easter chicks if desired. Best enjoyed slightly warm for soft, gooey centres and crisp chocolate edges, a true woodfired chocolate brownie experience.
