Here’s the one for the chocolate brownie. Nothing like good grub to make those goals even more fun to watch!
Ingredients
For the cherry beer sauce:
200g fresh pitted cherries
200ml kriek cherry beer
1 tbsp caster sugarFor the brownie:
350g hot melted butter
530g sugar
45g cocoa powder
150g plain flour
Half a pint of beaten egg
A few drops of vanilla essence
200g chopped walnuts
300g plain chocolate (minimum 70% cocoa solids- broken into pieces)Method
1. To make the sauce, bring the water to the boil and skim off any froth. Add the cherries, bring back to the boil and simmer for five minutes.
2. Strain off the beer, set aside the cherries and return the beer to the pan. Add the sugar and reduce to a syrup (there should be about 1 tablespoon of liquid left when its ready).
3.Put the cherries back in the syrup and blitz with a hand blender. If you want an extra smooth sauce, pass the blitzed mixture through a fine sieve. Leave to cool, then refrigerate until required.
4.To make the brownie, pre-heat the oven to 180°C. Lightly butter an ovenproof dish (approx. 28cm x 17cm x 5cm deep).
5. Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and work together until fully combined. Pour the mixture into the dish and bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes.
6. Allow to fully cool before attempting to cook. To serve, cut into bite-size squares and drizzle over the cherry sauce- or serve in a bowl as a dip.
