Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. For the brownie: Melt the chocolate with the butter in a bain-marie. Stir in the sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Fold in the flour. Toast the slivered almonds in a dry pan until golden, then stir into the batter.
  3. For the cookie dough: Cream the butter and brown sugar until light. Beat in the egg. Gradually add the flour and baking powder, then fold in the chocolate chips.
