Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 100 milliliters Heavy cream
- 150 grams Semisweet chocolate (for truffle layer)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and dark chocolate together in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Whisk in granulated sugar and brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until combined.
Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted 2 inches from the edge comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan completely.
While the brownies are cooling, prepare the truffle layer. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat until it just starts to simmer. Remove from heat and add the semisweet chocolate. Let it sit for 2 minutes to soften, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Pour the truffle mixture over the cooled brownies, spreading it evenly to create a smooth layer. Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour or until the truffle layer is set.
Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the brownies out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares with a sharp knife, wiping the blade clean between cuts for neat edges.
Serve and enjoy these decadent truffle brownies with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk!
