Chocolate-Rasberry Brownies – Bon Appetit

Chocolate-Rasberry Brownies - Bon Appetit recipe image
These decadent brownies offer a perfect balance of deep chocolate richness and bright, fruity acidity. The base is a dense, fudgy batter made with melted unsweetened chocolate and butter, creating a tender crumb that holds up to the jam swirl. Layering raspberry preserves in the middle creates a beautiful marbled effect as it bakes, preventing the fruit from sinking while infusing every bite with a berry pop. They are an elegant yet simple dessert, ideal for potlucks, holiday gatherings, or a sophisticated treat after dinner. The combination of toasted walnuts and sweet-tart raspberry makes this a crowd-pleasing classic that feels both indulgent and refreshing.
