   Chop 75g milk & 75g white into chunks and reserve for later.

3. 3

   Melt milk chocolate (*see tip) and allow to cool slightly.

5. 5

   Add eggs & vanilla to butter mixture and whisk until light and fluffy.

9. 9

   Turn into greased baking tin and bake @ 170c / 350f for 30-34 mins depending upon how gooey you like them. I find the sweet spot in my oven is about 32 mins.

    Leave cool enough to turn out from baking tin, sprinkle with icing sugar and cut into squares, rectangles or triangles depending upon your mood.
