Instruction manual
1
We put the oven to heat up to 160 degrees. Lubricate the baking dish with oil.
2
In a large bowl, mix the flour with cocoa and salt. In a water bath, melt the chocolate with butter, stirring until the mixture becomes homogeneous. Pour both types of sugar into it and mix until dissolved. Then break the eggs there and add the vanilla. Mix again until smooth.
3
Combine with dry ingredients, knead with a spatula so that there are no lumps (but not for long!). We spread the mass into a mold and send it to the oven for 12-15 minutes. We check the readiness with a toothpick: crumbs should remain on it. We get out and set aside to cool.
4
In a saucepan over medium heat, mix sugar, flour and milk and hold for about 7 minutes: the mixture should become thick. Remove it from the fire and begin to beat with a mixer until it is completely cooled. Now we begin to add a little softened oil, without turning off the mixer.
5
After we introduce all the butter, beat for a couple of minutes for the cream splendor. Add cream and peppermint extract, mix. We spread the resulting cream on the cooled brownies and put in the refrigerator for an hour.
6
For chocolate ganache, melt butter and chocolate in a water bath, mix until smooth. Fill the workpiece with the resulting mixture, level it with a spatula and return it to the refrigerator until it solidifies. Cut into portions and serve. Bon Appetit!
