Raspberry Panna Cotta Brownies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (200g) dark chocolate chips (70% cocoa)
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (120g) raspberry panna cotta mix (see note)
  • 1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line an 8-inch (20cm) square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, and salt; set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips, granulated sugar, and unsalted butter. Melt in the microwave or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
  4. Whisk in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients; stir until just combined (do not overmix).
  6. Fold in the raspberry panna cotta mix and confectioners' sugar.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  9. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Note:

Raspberry Panna Cotta Mix: A store-bought mix can be used, but you can also make your own by combining 1 cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Let cool completely before using.

Tips & Variations:

  • For an intense raspberry flavor, use fresh raspberries pureed into the batter.
  • Top with whipped cream and fresh raspberries for added visual appeal.
  • Substitute chocolate chips with chopped hazelnuts or pecans for added texture and flavor.
