How to make Raspberry Brownies with Chocolate Ganache

Step 1 – Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2 – In the bowl of a stand mixer (or other medium bowl and electric mixer), combine cocoa, baking soda, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1/8 cup very hot water. Stir until mixed together.

Step 3 – With the mixer on the lowest speed add in the order listed: 2/3 cup sugar, slightly beaten egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, vanilla, flour, and salt. Mix until combined. Then, fold in 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Step 4 – Pour the brownie batter into a small 6 x 6 buttered cake pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until brownies begin to pull away from the sides. It is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 5 – While the brownies are cooling make the sauce.  In a small saucepan combine the raspberries, 2 teaspoons sugar, cornstarch, and 1/8 cup water. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens. Allow the sauce to cool slightly.

Step 6 – While the raspberry sauce is cooling make the chocolate ganache. In a small saucepan combine 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream over low heat. Stir constantly until the ganache is smooth and creamy.

Step 7 – Pour or drizzle the smooth chocolate ganache over the top of the cooled brownies. Top with the raspberry sauce evenly over brownies. Use a toothpick or butter knife and gently swirl the ganache and raspberry sauce together. Garnish with fresh raspberries if desired. Serve and enjoy!

Pro Tips

You can also mix the raspberry sauce into the brownie batter before pouring it into the buttered pan.
