Rich, fudgy brownies topped with silky pistachio cream and roasted pistachios, inspired by the indulgence of Ferrero Rocher chocolates.

Ingredients

170g butter

180g dark chocolate, chopped

3 large eggs

200g caster sugar

60g light brown sugar

1 tbsp vanilla extract

170g plain flour

40g cocoa powder

¼ tsp salt

400g pistachio cream (warmed slightly)

100g roasted pistachios, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking tin with parchment paper.
  2. Melt butter and dark chocolate together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, caster sugar, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract until combined and slightly thickened.
  4. Fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture.
  5. Sift in flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then gently fold until just combined.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared tin and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the center is just set but still fudgy.
  8. Cool brownies completely in the tin.
  9. Spread warmed pistachio cream evenly over cooled brownies.
  10. Sprinkle chopped roasted pistachios on top, pressing lightly into the cream.
  11. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before slicing for clean cuts.

Notes

Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts for neat slices.

Brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.

For longer storage, freeze individually wrapped pieces for up to 2 months.

Can be made gluten-free with a good-quality gluten-free flour blend.

Try variations like swapping pistachio cream for hazelnut or almond cream, or drizzling melted white chocolate on top.
