Triple Chocolate And Raspberry Brownies Food

BEST EVER CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 20 x 30cm baking tray tin with baking parchment. Put the chocolate, butter and sugar in a pan and gently melt, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat.
• Stir the eggs, one by one, into the melted chocolate mixture. Sieve over the flour and cocoa, and stir in. Stir in half the raspberries, scrape into the tray, then scatter over the remaining raspberries. Bake on the middle shelf for 30 mins or, if you prefer a firmer texture, for 5 mins more. Cool before slicing into squares. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE BROWNIES WITH RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• Clean the raspberries by rinsing them with cool water. Check inside each one for any debris to remove. Set the raspberries, hole-side down, in a single layer on paper towels to dry.
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 baking pan with cooking or baking spray. Line the pan with foil, with extra overhanging on each end, so you can fold it around the edges of the pan and use it as handles later. Grease the foil, making sure to get the sides.
• Cut up the butter into pieces and add them to a 2-quart glass bowl or microwave-safe mixing bowl. Heat the butter on high for a minute, covered.
• Add the bittersweet and semisweet chocolate chips to the bowl (save the white ones for later.) Heat the chocolate and butter for 30 seconds on high, then stir. Heat for another 15 seconds or so, just until the chocolate melts. Stir to combine.
• Add the brown sugar and salt to the bowl and beat with a mixer until blended.
• Add the vanilla. Then add one egg at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Stir in the flour and cocoa, just until combined.
• Gently stir in the white chocolate chips.
• Gently pat the raspberries with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Add half of the raspberries to the batter and gently stir them in, trying not to break them.
• Transfer the brownie batter to your baking ban. Smooth it with a spatula until it's even. Place the rest of the raspberries on top of the batter, open ends facing up, in a single layer.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
• Let the pan cool on a wire rack. Then refrigerate the pan of brownies for 2-3 hours to chill and set. When you're ready to cut them, use the foil handles to lift out the brownies and transfer them to a large cutting board. Cut the brownies into the size you desire. I recommend small portions, since they're rich.
• Store the brownies in the refrigerator for the best consistency. (They'll get too gooey at room temperature.) They can stay for up to three days in the refrigerator. You also can freeze the brownies in an airtight container, separating each layer with wax paper or parchment paper. Eat them within three months, for best quality.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9 by 9-inch baking pan with butter flavored cooking spray; set aside.
• In a blender, puree prunes and applesauce. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl. Add the brownie mix, egg whites, oil, and raspberry liqueur or water to mixing bowl. Beat for 1 minute with a wooden spoon until smooth. Transfer to prepared baking pan; set aside.
• In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the preserves. Drizzle over brownies. Swirl with a table knife.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove and cool completely before cutting.
• Puree thawed raspberries, honey, and liqueur in blender. Push through a fine mesh strainer; set aside.
• To serve, spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons coulis on a plate. Place brownie in center of coulis. Garnish with 3 to 5 fresh raspberries and a fresh mint sprig.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE TRIFLE WITH RASPBERRIES

Steps:

• To make brownies, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking pan.
• In a large saucepan, melt butter. Remove pan from heat and stir in chopped chocolate until fully melted. Stir in cocoa and sugar until combined. Slowly add eggs, whisking chocolate mixture constantly, then whisk in vanilla. Fold in flour and salt.
• Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until just firm, about 25 minutes (do not overbake). Transfer pan to a rack to cool. If using spirits, prick holes in hot brownies and drizzle evenly over pan.
• In a large bowl, mix together granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt. Whisk in 3/4 cup milk. In a large saucepan, bring remaining 1 cup milk and 1/2 cup cream to a boil over medium heat. Whisk hot milk mixture slowly into cocoa mixture. Return to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking gently, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. (A simmering bubble or two is O.K., but do not let it boil.)
• In a medium heat-resistant bowl, whisk yolks. Whisking them constantly, very slowly dribble about half the cocoa-milk mixture into yolks until fully combined. Pour yolk mixture into saucepan with remaining cocoa-milk mixture, whisking constantly. Cook, whisking occasionally, over medium-low heat, until thickened, about 5 minutes. (Do not let mixture come to a simmer. If pan begins to steam thickly, remove from heat for a few moments and stir well before continuing.) Let cool slightly.
• Melt 5 ounces chopped chocolate with butter. Stir until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Cool 5 minutes, then fold into thickened egg mixture. Place plastic wrap directly against pudding (to prevent a skin from forming), and chill until set, about 3 hours. (Pudding and brownies can be made up to 5 days ahead, and refrigerated.)
• Just before assembling, in an electric mixer, beat remaining 2 1/2 cups cream with remaining 5 tablespoons cocoa powder and 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar until it forms soft peaks. Scrape down sides and fold in any excess cocoa or sugar.
• Cut brownies into 1-inch squares. Fit a layer of brownie squares in bottom of a 4-quart trifle, glass, or other bowl. Top with half the pudding, a third of the whipped cream, a third of the remaining chopped chocolate and a third of the raspberries. Repeat layering until all ingredients have been used. Serve immediately, or cover with plastic wrap and chill for up to 24 hours before serving.

CHOCOLATE-COVERED RASPBERRY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Lightly grease parchment.
• Make the brownies: Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; once melted, stir in the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth; set aside and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
• Whisk flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder together in a medium mixing bowl; set aside.
• Combine sugar and eggs in a large mixing bowl; beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in vanilla. Mix in the cooled, melted chocolate, adding it to the bowl in a slow, steady stream. Mix in the dry ingredients in increments, at low speed, until just combined. Finish incorporating the batter by hand with a rubber spatula if necessary. Scrape the batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until brownies begin to pull away from the sides of pan and a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies tests clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Place the pan on a wire rack and allow brownies to cool completely, 30 to 40 minutes.
• To prepare the topping, spread the raspberry jam evenly over the brownies in the pan, spreading right to the edge. Arrange the whole raspberries in a single layer over the jam.
• Place the chocolate chips in a medium, heat-proof mixing bowl. Warm heavy cream and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. When the butter melts and the cream begins steaming and bubbling at the edges, pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate. Let stand for 3 to 5 minutes to allow chocolate to melt; add salt and whisk until completely smooth. Pour the chocolate ganache over the raspberries. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.
• Carefully pull the brownies from the pan using parchment paper overhang; place on a cutting board and carefully peel the parchment paper from the sides. Slice into 9 squares and serve.
