Over-The-Top Chocolate and Macadamia Brownies

Seznam's Note:

As the name suggests, these are not a brownie to be taken lightly! They are, however, very, very, seriously yummy! I didn't bother with the icing sugar and would probably substitute the milk chocolate for even more dark chocolate next time ... but that may be being a glutton for punishment! :D
