Maple Bacon And Pecan Brownies Food

MAPLE, BACON AND PECAN BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium. Grill the bacon on a baking sheet until the fat is golden, then lay the rashers on kitchen paper to allow them to crisp up. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4 and lightly grease and line a 20.5cm (8in) square tin with baking parchment.
• Snip or break the bacon into small pieces; put into a bowl with the maple syrup and pecans. Mix and set aside.
• Put the butter and sugar into a large heatproof bowl and sift in the cocoa powder. Put bowl over a pan of barely simmering water (make sure the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water) and heat until the mixture is melted and smooth, stirring occasionally - initially it will look like the mixture won't come together, but it will. Lift the bowl off the pan and set aside to cool slightly.
• Beat the eggs, one at a time, into the chocolate mixture. Sift over the flour and beat vigorously until the mixture is shiny and smooth. Stir in most of the bacon mix.
• Scrape the chocolate mixture into the prepared tin, level and scatter over the remaining bacon mixture. Bake for 20-30min or until set. Leave the brownie to cool completely in tin before cutting into squares. Like this? You'll love...
