Lindor Truffle Brownies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a hand held electric mixer, beat the eggs and salt together in a large mixing bowl until frothy. Add the sugar and beat until the eggs are thick and pale yellow, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and beat an additional 30 seconds.
• Put the margarine and chocolate in a microwave safe container and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir to insure that the chocolate has melted. Microwave an additional 30 seconds, if needed.
• With the mixer running, pour the melted chocolate into the egg mixture. Add the flour and beat 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat an additional 30 seconds.
• Spray the cake pan with a pan release spray and pour in the brownie batter. Place the pan on the top rack of the oven and bake 15 to 20 minutes until the center is barely set.* Remove the pan from the oven and let cool. Top with the ganache and place in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
• To serve, remove from freezer and slice immediately. Allow to come to room temperature before serving.
• Put the chocolate chips and cream into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove the bowl and stir with a whisk or fork until well mixed. Use immediately. If using the ganache later it will need to be reheated.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.
• Place the butter in a medium saucepan, and melt over low heat. Remove from the heat, add the chocolate and stir constantly until melted. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Stir until well mixed. Add the melted chocolate mixture, and mix until combined. Add the flour and salt, and mix just until combined. Fold in the nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
• Place the batter in the greased pan, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top is dull and an inserted toothpick comes out mostly clean. Do not overbake. Cool completely. If desired, dust the top with cocoa powder before cutting.
