Chocolate Lavender Brownie Recipe

I’m always on the hunt for new ways to use lavender in baking. This recipe from West Coast Seeds is a super yummy version that turned out perfect!

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (2 squares)
¼ cup butter
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
½ cup flour
Dash of salt
½ cup hazelnuts, chopped
1 tbsp dried lavender or two to three tbsp. fresh lavender, minced
Lavender flowers for decoration


Melt the chocolate and butter together, and cool. Mix the remaining ingredients, except the nuts, and whisk in the chocolate mixture. Blend smoothly, then add the hazelnuts. Put the mixture in an 8 x 9 inch square baking pan, and bake at 325 F for 18 minutes. Dust with icing sugar when removed from the oven. Cool. Sprinkle with lavender petals or you can use sugar crystals that come in colours.

Makes 16 squares.
