How to Make This White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Brownies Recipe

Ready to bake these dreamy White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Brownies? Follow these simple steps and prepare to be amazed. Don’t worry, if you stumble a bit the first time, practice makes perfect!

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8×8 inch baking pan. We find this size produces the best fudgy brownies.
2. 2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
3. 3. Stir in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The batter should be glossy and smooth.
4. 4. Gradually add the flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
5. 5. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
6. 6. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped white chocolate, raspberry jam, and water. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the white chocolate is melted and smooth. Don’t overheat it, or it will seize up!
7. 7. Drop spoonfuls of the white chocolate raspberry mixture over the brownie batter. This creates the swirl effect.
8. 8. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the white chocolate raspberry mixture into the brownie batter. Create swooping motions for a pretty marbled effect.
9. 9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. Don’t overbake, or they won’t be fudgy!
10. 10. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This is crucial for clean cuts.
11. 11. Enjoy!
