Chocolate Ganache Brownies are rich, fudgy and decadent. They start with a fudge brownie base layer with chocolate chips throughout. On top is a thin layer of raspberry jam and then a thick layer of creamy chocolate ganache to create the perfect bite.
Brownie Ingredients
- 2/3 cup salted butter, hot and melted
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil, liquid form
- 1 1/8 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder , unsweetened
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 10 oz raspberry jam, for filling between brownie and ganache
Chocolate Ganache
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate
- 2 tbsp salted butter
- flake sea salt, for topping on ganache once set
First, start by making the brownies
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick
Add the hot butter, oil and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Whisk quickly for about 2 minutes
Whisk the 2 eggs together in a small bowl before adding into the batter
Add the eggs and vanilla extract into the batter
Whisk until combined
Add in the flour and cocoa powder
Fold into the batter until JUST combined. (You don't want to over mix the batter so that we get that perfect crinkly brownie top)
Next, fold in the chocolate chips
Pour into the lined 8×8 pan that's lined with parchment paper and spread into an even layer
Bake for 23-26 minutes
Remove from the oven when a toothpick comes out clean without any batter
While the brownies cool, let's make the chocolate ganache
To a saucepan, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips, heavy cream and salted butter
Heat over medium, whisking until melted and combined
Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature
Once the brownies are cooled to room temperature, spread the jam in an even layer on top of the brownies
Pour over the chocolate ganache and spread in an even layer
Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours or until set
Slice and top the ganache brownies with sea salt flakes
Enjoy!
