  • 360g (12 1/2 oz) Bournville plain chocolate (2 x 180g packets), broken into pieces
  • 225g (8oz) butter, cubed, plus extra for greasing
  • 225g (8oz) light muscovado sugar
  • 4 eggs, beaten

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

2 - Place the chocolate and butter in a large heatproof bowl. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water until melted. Stir to combine.

3 - Remove from the heat and add the sugar and eggs. Mix well until smooth, then add the flour and vanilla and mix again. Stir in the chocolate chips.

4 - Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared tin and bake for about 45 minutes, until well risen and set around the edges, with a slightly soft centre.

5 - Leave to cool in the tin, then slice into 24 squares.
