Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 120 grams orange marmalade (preferably chunky)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and dark chocolate together, stirring occasionally until smooth. Remove the pan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet mixture. Gently fold until just combined and no dry streaks remain, being careful not to overmix.
Transfer two-thirds of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Dollop the orange marmalade in small spoonfuls over the batter. Use a knife or skewer to create swirls, ensuring the marmalade is distributed but not completely mixed in.
Spoon the remaining brownie batter over the top in small dollops, then gently spread it to cover most of the marmalade swirls. It's okay if a bit of marmalade peeks through.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking to keep the brownies fudgy.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang. Slice into squares and enjoy.
