As I browsing the internet for more recipe ideas, I found this recipe for Mars Bar Brownies on Cafe Lula. Since Mars bars are my favourite chocolate bar I knew I would have to try out the recipe! This recipe makes incredibly rich and ohhh so chocolatey brownies!
Ingredients:

To start off with preheat the oven to 180°C/355°F or 170°C/340°F for a fan oven.
SOOOOOO MUCH CHOCOLATE!!!
In a pan over a low heat melt together the butter, finely chopped Mars bars and chocolate. Keep stirring with a wooden spoon and make sure to break down the nougat-y parts of the Mars by mashing them with the wooden spoon. When the mixture has melted and is smooth, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
Pour in the sugar and stir together. Then sift in the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and mix together until it has fully combined. Next beat in the eggs, until you have a smooth mixture, then fold in the chopped slices of Mars bar.
Pour the mixture into a lined square baking tin and spread it evenly, making sure to level off the top of the thick mixture.
Bake this in the oven for about 30-40 mins until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out with a few sticky crumbs on it.
Let the brownies cool in the tin until they are warm. Remove them from the tin and when they are cool, you can cut them into pieces.
The chopped slices of Mars bar folded in at the end add so much to the texture as well as taste of the brownie and as you can see there are some trails of caramel left, which adds another layer of flavour. They come out soft, goey and just delicious!
