Ingredients

For the brownies

255 g wheat flour

50 g almonds, ground

30 g cocoa, unsweetened & deoiled

200 g sugar

1 Pack(s) vanilla sugar

0.25 ts vanilla ground

1 ts baking soda

80 ml sunflower or rapeseed oil

1 tb apple cider vinegar

For the topping

50 g margarine, room temperature

200 g icing sugar

1 pc lemon, juice and peel

4 tb peppermint syrup

Preparation

1. Mix all dry baking ingredients for the chocolate brownies (except the chocolate sprinkles) in a mixing bowl. Add hand-hot water, vegetable oil and vinegar and stir with the hand mixer to form a homogeneous dough. Add chocolate sprinkles last.

2. Line baking mold with baking paper and spread batter on it. Bake at 190 °C in a preheated oven for 30-40 minutes. Pin a wooden stick to the cake: It’s ready to be removed when no dough will stick to it.

3. Meanwhile, prepare topping: Whip soft vegetable margarine with half the icing sugar until creamy. Add the remaining icing sugar, 3 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice and the grated lemon rind together with the mint syrup and stir everything to a homogenous mass. Let it rest in the fridge until the cake is completely cooled.

4. Brush the surface of the cake with the topping and cut the cake suares.
