How to make milk chocolate fudge brownies

Cream together the margarine and caster sugar.
Add one egg and mix.

Half fill a pan with water and bring to the boil, turn down the heat and simmer.

Place a bowl on top of the pan and add the chocolate to the bowl.

Stir a little from time to time until the chocolate melts. This should only take a few minutes.

Once the chocolate has melted carefully remove the bowl from the pan using a towel.

Pour the melted chocolate into a new dish and spread around the side of the dish to help with the cooling process.

You do not want to add the chocolate to the cake mixture whilst it is hot, nor do you want it to cool too much.

Add the flour, baking powder, malted milk powder, vanilla and egg.

Mix well.

Pour in the melted chocolate, mix briefly.

The chocolate brownie mixture will have an almost gluey consistency whilst you whisk.

Pour the tasty chocolate brownie cake mixture into an 8 inch round/square baking tin that has been greased and floured.
