Ingredients

300g Fairtrade Dark Chocolate, (chopped into small pieces)
250g Unsalted Butter, (chopped into small pieces)
4 Free Range Eggs
150g Fairtrade Caster Sugar
150g Fairtrade Dark Brown Soft Sugar
80g Fairtrade Cocoa
65g Plain Flour
2 Balls Stem Ginger, finely chopped
1Tbsp Stem Ginger Syrup
Icing Sugar for decoration

Preheat your oven to 180C/Gas Mark 4 and grease and line a tin approx 20x30cm.
In a large heavy based saucepan, over a low heat, melt 200g dark chocolate and all of the butter. Stir frequently to ensure its not burning. When its all melted set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together your eggs and sugar and then pour into your chocolate mixture and stir to combine.
Sieve your dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture and stir together well. Add your remaining 100g chocolate, the finely chopped stem ginger and ginger syrup and mix to combine.
Pour your mixture into the prepared tin and make sure its evenly spread. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until it has started to crackle on top and is slightly firm on top.
Once the brownie has cooled, cut into 24 pieces and dust with icing sugar.
It tastes amazing with creme fraiche, ice cream, cream or by itself!
