Servings: 12 slices
Equipment
Ingredients
- 100 g dark chocolate
- 100 g milk chocolate
- 170 g unsalted butter
- 200 g caster sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 90 g gluten free plain flour (I use FREEE or M&S or Asda's own brand plain gluten free flour)
- 40 g cocoa powder
- 4 gluten free mince pies
- 100 g mincemeat
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C / Fan 160C / Gas Mark 4. Line an 8-inch / 20cm square baking tin with baking paper and set aside.
- Break the chocolate into a bowl and melt over a bowl of boiling water. Once melted set aside to cool slightly while you start the rest of the recipe.
- Melt the butter in the microwave and add to a large mixing bowl with the sugar. Using an electric whisk, mix together until combined.
- Add the eggs to the sugar/butter mix. Continue to mix with electric whisker for a minute until the mixture pales and starts to go fluffy.
- Add the chocolate to the mix - make sure it is warm but not too hot or it will cook the eggs (not good!). Using a spatula fold the chocolate in and mix until combined.
- Sift in the flour and cocoa powder and then fold into the mix gently. You don't want to over mix - just enough so there are no lumps of flour.
- Cut the mince pies roughly into quarters then add to the mixture and fold in. Once combined, pour into the lined baking tin and spread out evenly.
- 'Dollop' the mincemeat in blobs on top of the brownie mix and swirl it around using a knife. Bake in the oven for around 30 minutes - they should be a bit wobbly in the centre, but will firm up as they cool.
- Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack completely before cutting them up. It is very important to ensure the brownies cool completely before cutting. I would give them at least a couple of hours, if you can resist!

Notes
- Top Tip: I cannot stress enough how important it is to let these brownies cool completely before cutting them. They need to be quite liquid still when they come out of the oven to firm up into gooey, fudgy brownies! If you want to serve them warm, I recommend leaving them to cool for an hour-or-two at least.
- Storage: These brownies can be stored for up to a week at room temperature, or frozen for up to 6 months.
