To make the batter, melt chocolate and butter in a saucepan until smooth. Allow to cool slightly. Beat the sugar and add in flax seed mixture then fold in flour, cocoa and baking powder and fold in the chocolate mixture and whisk until combined. Pour the brownie mixture into a greased and lined baking dish. Bake at 180 degrees c for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted inside comes out almost clean.
