Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup White chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in 20-second increments, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted. Allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until light and slightly fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and Kahlua, then whisk to combine.
Pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, whisking constantly until smooth and fully incorporated.
Sift in the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan.
To make the frosting, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat.
Divide the heated heavy cream evenly between two bowls. Add the white chocolate chips to one bowl and the dark chocolate chips to the other bowl. Let each sit for 2-3 minutes, then gently stir until both mixtures are smooth.
Spread the white chocolate ganache evenly over the cooled brownies. Drizzle the dark chocolate ganache on top and use a toothpick or knife to swirl the two together to create a marbled effect.
Transfer the pan to the refrigerator and let the frosting set for at least 1 hour before slicing the brownies into squares. Serve and enjoy!
