Raspberry Swirl Brownies (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Brownies Layer

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 3 large eggs
03 - 1 cup unsalted butter
04 - 1 ¼ cups white sugar
05 - 1 cup chocolate chips
06 - 2 tsp vanilla extract
07 - ½ tsp salt
08 - ¾ cup cocoa powder

→ Raspberry Sauce

09 - 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
10 - 2 tbsp sugar
11 - 1 cup ripe raspberries

# Instructions:

01 - Set your oven to 350°F and get a 9x9-inch pan ready with parchment paper lining.
02 - In a pan over medium heat, cook raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice for 5 minutes, stirring now and then. If you don’t like seeds, strain them out.
03 - Melt butter in a small saucepan. Take it off the heat and stir in cocoa, sugar, and a bit of salt.
04 - Drop in some vanilla and the eggs, adding one at a time while mixing until smooth.
05 - Gently fold in the flour without overmixing, then toss in the chocolate chips.
06 - Pour the brownie batter into the pan. Add spoonfuls of the raspberry mixture on top, then use a knife to swirl it all around for a marbled look.
07 - Bake for 25-30 minutes. The edges should look done, but the center will still be gooey. Let it cool completely before you cut into it.

# Notes:

01 - The chocolate richness pairs wonderfully with the tangy raspberry swirls.
02 - For really clean slices, pop the brownies into the fridge for an hour before cutting.
