Preparing These Brownies Is Quick And Easy. Follow These Steps for Guaranteed Success:

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

   2. Melt the 220 g of chocolate and the butter together in a double boiler until smooth.

   3. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar. Once the mixture has cooled slightly, whisk in the eggs one by one.

   4. In a small bowl, mix the flour and the Floèm Sweet Clover Powder to fully release the boreal vanilla aromas.

   5. Add the dry mixture and the fleur de sel to the chocolate preparation. Mix gently.

   7. Pour the batter into a square pan lined with parchment paper.

   8. Bake for about 30 minutes. The center should remain slightly soft for a fudgy result.

   9. Let cool completely before removing from the pan and slicing. For the ultimate indulgence, enjoy your brownie with a side of sweet clover chantilly cream!
