Merryn’s Eggless Nutty Chocolate Brownie Recipe

After reading about Merryn’s Eggless Nutty Chocolate Brownie Recipe, I was so tempted to give it a try because it sounds so easy! No baking was required and I can even ask my lil prince to be my assistance.
Here are the ingredients (recipe from Merryn’s blog)

22 Marie Biscuits
20gm cocoa powder
40gm roasted nuts
200gm condensed milk

I bought the tiger marie biscuits, cocoa powder, condensed milk and for roasted nuts, I also use cashew nuts and almond nuts as these are my favorites!
The instructions are pretty easy to follow too.  I placed the marie biscuits in my zip lock bag so that it’s easier for  me to break them into pieces.  I gave the bag to my lil prince to break the marie biscuits into crumbs while I chopped the nuts.  Boy!  He had fun breaking those pieces of biscuits and he almost broke my zip lock bag!   
 






Next we added the cocoa powder, nuts and lastly the condensed milk.    Simple right?  Just mixed everything together and pour into your baking tray.  Let it chill for at least 4 hours in the fridge or overnight.  I pour the mixture into my star shaped silicon molds and the left over I put them in a round plate. 


Here’s my star shaped chocolate brownies.

I cut the remaining chocolate brownies into heart shaped using my cookie cutter and packed them for lil prince snack box yesterday.

My lil prince absolutely loves this chocolate brownies and kept asking for me for more.  I will definitely make this again as it is really simple and the kids love it!  As for the process of making the brownies, I personally enjoyed the mother & son bonding time together in the kitchen.  I was so surprise that my lil prince was so eager to help me out in the kitchen right till the very end and even offer to wash the plates for me. 




You may hop over to Merryn's blog for step-by-step instructions on this recipe.  Thank you Merryn for sharing this lovely recipe!

  7. Very tempted to try this too, looks so tasty. Is it very difficult to wash the moulds after you remove the brownies from them? Did the brownie stick to the moulds?

    1. Thank you. Surprisingly they are quite easy to remove. Probably because they are silicon moulds, I just 'rendam' them in water for a while and wash it away. No scrubbing.
