About

These are so named because they’re almost as rich as chocolate truffles. They are best cut the day after being baked so they have time to firm up.

Ingredients

225 g unsalted butter
280 g dark chocolate (65-70% cocoa solids), cut into 5mm pieces

Dessert
Vegetarian

Method

Set a rack in the centre of the oven; preheat to 180°C/gas mark 4.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Let the butter get hot and start to sizzle after it’s melted. Add the chocolate all at once and gently shake the pan to submerge
