Method
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and line a 7 x 7inch baking tin with baking paper and spray with non-stick cooking oil.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your chocolate and then stir in the butter until melted and glossy.
100 g dark chocolate, 40 g butter
Measure out your light brown sugar and golden caster sugar into a mixing bowl, and then add the chocolate/butter mix and vanilla essence and stir to combine.
50 g light brown sugar, 50 g golden caster sugar, 1 tsp vanilla essence
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, flaxseed, and a pinch of salt.
1 tsp ground flax seed, 75 g plain flour, 10 g cocoa powder, 0.5 tsp baking powder, pinch salt
Slowly add your milk and stir gently until the mix is just combined - it will be quite a thick batter!
120 ml soy milk
Pour your brownie mix into the baking tin, and smooth the top down.
In a bowl, melt the biscoff spread until it has just softened (~15 seconds), then drizzle the spread over the brownie mix. With a knife, gently draw lines through the top of the mix to swirl the spread around.
25 g lotus biscoff spread
Place your brownies in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
While baking, cut your lotus biscuits in half. Remove the brownies and then gently press the biscuits evenly into the tops of the mix 3 x 3 (you'll have one half left to enjoy!).
5 lotus biscuits
Bake for another 10 minutes.
Remove and all to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before removing - for super fudgy brownies, place them in the fridge for a few hours before cutting!
