Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams dark chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 6 drops per color food coloring (various colors, gel-based preferred)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease or line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some excess paper to hang over the edges.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and dark chocolate chips together in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Let the mixture cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually mix in the melted chocolate and butter mixture until fully incorporated.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the bowl, then gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly into 4-6 small bowls, depending on how many colors you want to use. Add a few drops of gel food coloring to each bowl and mix until the batter is evenly colored.
Using a spoon, drop dollops of each colored batter into the prepared pan, layering and swirling them together to create a 'sand art' effect. Repeat until all the batter is used.
Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled, sand-art appearance. Be careful not to overmix or the colors will combine too much.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Slice into squares and enjoy your colorful sand art brownies!
