※ Dulche De Leche Brownies

Image
  If you have no time to make Dulche De Leche you can substitute with Top and Fill by Nestle For the Dulce De Leche  Filling / topping : 2 x 395g cans sweetened condensed milk  (I make a double batch as it takes a while and is worthwhile as will keep in the fridge) Thick and glossy, rich and sweet, this spreadable golden caramel turns simple treats into luxurious desserts. Beware - it's addictive! Preheat oven to 220°C. Pour condensed milk into a heatproof baking dish. Place dish in a roasting pan. Pour water into pan to come halfway up the side of dish. Cover with foil and bake, refilling the pan with water if necessary, for 1 hour 45 minutes or until dark golden. Whisk the mixture until smooth. Pour into a 500ml (2-cup) capacity sterilised jar and seal. Once opened, store in the fridge.  REALLY EASY BROWNIES INGREDIENTS 125g butter 1/2 cup cocoa powder ( I used dutch dark) 3 eggs (60g) 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla essence 1 1/2 cup caster sugar 3/
