As we all stay home, we thought we’d share some of our most popular recipes from our Winter Menu for some home baking inspiration this weekend!

Our winter menu, carefully designed by master cook Cate Dixon, is always a hit with our guests, so why not try cooking some of our signature dishes for yourselves!

First up is our very delicious Chocolate brownie recipe…

TOP TIPS!

Make the brownie the night before eating, so the brownie sets up and gets its characteristic chew.

Use a hot knife to slice into squares

Add a salted caramel sauce & ice cream for extra indulgence!!

We’ll look to share recipes over the coming weeks, to give you a taste of Treeline at home.

If you have any requests, please let us know!

And of course, we’d love to see your photos of you home brownie baking too!

Love Treeline x
