Ingredients
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 125 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 120 grams orange marmalade
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8-inch (20x20cm) baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
Melt the dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, whisk the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture is thick and pale.
Step 4
Slowly pour the melted chocolate and butter mixture into the egg mixture while whisking constantly to combine.
Step 5
Stir in the vanilla extract and orange zest.
Step 6
Sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt in another bowl. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until combined—do not overmix.
Step 7
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Dot half of the orange marmalade over the batter in small spoonfuls.
Step 8
Pour the remaining batter on top and spread evenly again. Dot the rest of the orange marmalade over the surface and use a skewer or knife to swirl it slightly into the batter to create a marbled effect.
Step 9
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake for fudgy brownies).
Step 10
Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Slice into 12 squares and serve.
