110 g low fat spread / butter alternative - melted
170 g castor sugar
2 medium eggs
3 tsp vanilla extract
65 g self-raising flour
40 g cocoa powder
1 pinch of salt
1
Preheat the oven to 180C, and line an 8" square baking tray with parchment paper.
2
Combine the melted butter with sugar and mix until the sugar is dissolved.
Add in the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until light in colour.
3
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder and salt. Gently fold them into the mixture.
Be careful not to over mix here, but still ensure that all the flour/cocoa powder is incorporated.
4
Pour your mixture into the pre=prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes.
I've found the best timing is 22.5 minutes!

Leave to cool in the tray and then cut into 12 equal pieces. Transfer to a cooling rack to continue cooling.
Sprinkle with icing sugar and enjoy!
