Chocolate Brownies

 These are moist chocolate brownies with deliciously caramelised white chocolate bits. So most people will only need a small piece, while others with sweet tooths will gobble down multiple pieces all at once they're so good.

I'd love to try these with some macadamias as well as I usually love the white chocolate and macadamia combo. I also like to think this recipe is a little fool proof as I changed the tin size and slightly overcooked the brownies, and they still came out delicious once I cut off the outside edge. Btw I ate the entire outside edge as although it looked overcooked and dry, it tasted fantastic and crunchy. So don't throw it out!
