Today is a week since we closed our doors and as you can't come to us, we wanted to bring a bit of The Dorset Arms to you..
•
For a bit of fun cooking this weekend & to inspire you we have raided Chef's super secret recipe file for one of our most famous and well loved recipes.

So why not give it try it at home - it's super easy (Simon says), delicious and the ingredients are store cupboard friendly too.

Our Chocolate and Hazlenut Brownie - a much loved dish here at The Dorset Arms and one of our menu classics.

Ingredients
325g Butter
325g Dark Chocolate
325g Soft Dark Brown Sugar

Method
- Set the oven to 170 degrees C - Line a baking tray with baking paper
- Break up the chocolate & put in a bowl with the butter
- Melt the chocolate and the butter over a bain-marie then take off the heat
- Beat the eggs and sugar together until pale - Fold the chocolate and egg mixtures together - Sift the flour and fold in, then add the nuts and mix
- Pour the mixture into the baking tray - Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 mins
- Remove from the oven and place a clean damp tea towel over the Brownies and set aside to cool

Thanks @official_tunbridge_wells we loved having you to stay and so pleased you enjoyed your visit!
Posted @withregram • @official_tunbridge_wells We hope you are well and enjoying your Saturday evening. The current situation cannot be avoided, however, we wanted to publish our latest blog post to encourage you to support local businesses during this time. We will continue posting beautiful and relevant content in the hope that it makes you smile and brings you happiness 🖤 We visited @dorset_arms_withyham to experience dinner, an overnight stay and breakfast. The Old School Cottage is quintessentially English, set in rolling countryside and full of charm. The food is locally sourced and a delight to eat! We thoroughly recommend everything about it - to read more about our stay click the link in our bio 🔝
