Ingredients

Brownies

50g TCHO Super Powder
350g Whole Milk
270g TCHO Hella Dark 81%
3 Whole Eggs, at room temperature
105g Melted Unsalted Butter
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
270g Rice Flour
360g Cane Sugar
5g Baking Powder
4g Kosher Salt
TCHO Crush This, for garnish
Maldon Sea Salt (or other flaky sea salt), for garnish
Melted Butter, for greasing pan

Roasted Matcha Whipped Cream

500g Heavy Cream
85g Cane Sugar
25g Roasted Matcha/Hojicha Powder
Pinch of Sea Salt

Directions

Brownies
  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (if using convection oven) or 350°F (if using non-convection oven).
  2. Add TCHO Super Powder and whole milk to a pot. Cook over medium high heat, and continually whisk to get rid of lumps. Mixture has to reach boil in order to cook away the “raw” taste of the cacao powder.
  3. Once it boils, take it off the heat and add TCHO Hella Dark 81%. Whisk until melted and smooth.
  4. Then add eggs, butter, and vanilla. Whisk until evenly combined.
  5. Then, in the same pot, add all the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture and stir until combined.
  6. Generously grease the baking pan with melted butter. Pour batter directly in the pan. Sprinkle with TCHO Crush This and flaky sea salt.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes. To check whether it’s done, insert a toothpick or metal skewer into the center of the brownie. The toothpick should be moist and be (mostly) clean.
  8. If the toothpick comes out liquidy, then return it to the oven for 5 more minutes.
  9. Let it completely cool before cutting. Then cut into 2” squares.
Whipped Cream
  1. Using a stand-mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add all the ingredients and whip on medium speed until the cream forms soft peaks.
  2. Scrape the bowl and set aside in the fridge until ready.
  3. When you’re ready, spoon a dollop of whipped cream on top of the brownie and enjoy!
