Back in July I was heading to London to see Stray Kids play the BST festival at Hyde Park, and because their was a group of us going, I decided to bake us something. Looking through recipes online I decided to go with Jane's Patisserie's Baileys Brownies.

Let's get baking!

Ingredients:

Brownies

200g unsalted butter

200g dark chocolate, chopped

4 medium eggs

275g caster sugar

100ml Baileys

100g plain flour

50g cocoa powder

200g milk chocolate chips

Baileys Ganache

200g dark chocolate

200ml Baileys

Start off by pre-heating your oven t0 180C/160C Fan and line a 9" square baking tin with parchment paper.

Next melt together the butter and dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of boiling water.

Leave the mixture to one side to cool to room temperature.

Next using and electric whisk or stand mixer, whisk together the eggs and caster sugar for a few minutes. Until the colour has turned pale, is very mousse like, and is double it's original volume of the amount of eggs and sugar.

Next pour in the cooled chocolate mix and all of your Baileys over the egg and sugar mixture and fold together carefully, as you don't want to knock the air out from the previous step.

Next add the cocoa power and flour and then fold it all together again, still being careful not to knock the air out.

Once combined, fold through the chocolate chips.

Pour the mixture into your prepared baking tin and smooth over. 

Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until there is a slight wobble in the middle.

Once baked, leave in the tin to cool completely.

For the Baileys Ganache, put the dark chocolate and Baileys into a pan and heat on low, stirring often until smooth.

Spread the ganache onto the brownies and the set them in the fridge overnight for the best results.

This recipe is really easy to both follow and make, it's also a good recipe if like me you're not a big Baileys drinker and have some left over, especially at Christmas.

These brownies were really nice and fudgy, if like me you don't tend to drink much Baileys, you can taste it, but it works really well with the chocolate.

They also seemed to go down really well with the group I was with. I will definitely make them again, they're already on my list for possible bakes at Christmas.

If you would like to follow Jane's recipe, then head over to Baileys Brownies on the Jane's Patisserie website.

See you soon!
