Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Brownie Batter

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (225 grams)
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder

Raspberry Sauce

  • 1/2 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • A small amount of water (about 2 tablespoons)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Pan: Line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving overhangs for easy removal. Lightly coat the lining with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Make the Raspberry Sauce: In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and a small splash (about 2 tablespoons) of water. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes saucy. Mash the raspberries with a spoon or use an immersion blender for a smoother texture. Bring the sauce to a boil for a few minutes, then turn off the heat. Strain to remove seeds and set aside the smooth sauce.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when you finish preparing the batter.
  4. Prepare the Chocolate Mixture: In a larger saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips together over low heat until the mixture is silky smooth. Turn off the heat and allow it to cool, optionally placing it in the fridge to speed cooling.
  5. Mix Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly add this egg mixture to the cooled chocolate mixture, stirring continuously to temper the eggs and prevent scrambling.
  6. Finalize and Bake the Brownie Batter: Add flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the chocolate-egg mixture. Stir until smooth and fully combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Spoon small amounts of raspberry sauce on top and use a knife to gently swirl the sauce into the batter creating a marbled effect.
  7. Bake the Brownies: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan before lifting out using the parchment or foil overhang, then slice and serve.

Notes

  • For a smoother raspberry swirl, strain the raspberry sauce well to remove all seeds.
  • Using fresh raspberries yields the best flavor, but frozen raspberries work fine; thaw before cooking.
  • Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added to keep brownies tender.
  • Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • The brownies can be frozen for up to 2 months when tightly wrapped.
