Chocolate, Rum and Raisin Brownies (for the Perkins girlie night in)

Taken from this wonderful cookbook which Penny bought me last Christmas:

Here's the recipe:

Here's what they are supposed to look like:

 I'll report back in an hour or so to let you know how it goes along with any adaptation which I have made.....

Here are my ingredients ^^^


Only differences from the original recipe are that instead of bars of pure chocolate I have decided to use the remainder from the end of selection boxes of chocolates. All the ones which have been sitting in chocolate jar for quite some time but sadly without a home as everyone has left them behind. 

 (I love these jars - I have several of them found at charity shops at opposite end of the country - I've been told they're from a range which came out in the 1950s/60s which were supposed to take their inspiration from vegetables - in this case onions. I do indeed have a very big soft for coloured glass in any case, I'm drawn to it like a magpie to shiny things)

The only other difference is that I have used stork spread instead of butter as it is what I had in...

Fresh out the oven.....

Just sliced.....

 

On a plate with ice cream....

yum yum yum....enjoy!
