Ingredients
  

For the Brownies:

1 cup (226g) unsalted butter

8 oz (227g) dark chocolate (70% cacao or higher), chopped

1 1/4 cups (250g) granulated sugar

1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup (130g) all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Raspberry Truffle Layer:

8 oz (227g) dark chocolate, chopped

1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream

1/2 cup (about 60g) fresh raspberries

1 tablespoon raspberry liqueur (optional)

For Garnish:

Fresh raspberries

Cocoa powder or powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

    Melt the Chocolate and Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and dark chocolate over low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and combined. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

        Combine the Chocolate Mixture: Pour the warm chocolate-butter mixture into the sugar-egg mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to scramble the eggs with the heat.

          Add Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour and salt, and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.

            Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter). Allow the brownies to cool in the pan.

              Prepare the Raspberry Truffle Layer: While the brownies are cooling, make the raspberry truffle layer. In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chopped dark chocolate, stirring until smooth and well combined. Stir in the fresh raspberries and raspberry liqueur, if using, until evenly distributed.

                Assemble the Brownies: Once the brownies have cooled completely, pour the raspberry truffle mixture over them. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the surface. Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour to allow the truffle layer to set.

                  Serve: Once set, lift the brownies out of the pan using the edges of the parchment paper. Cut into squares and garnish with fresh raspberries and a dusting of cocoa powder or powdered sugar, if desired.

                    Enjoy! Indulge in the rich, fudgy brownie topped with the luscious raspberry truffle layer for a delightful dessert experience.
