Red Currant Brownies with Cream Filling Recipe

These decadent and fruity red currant brownies with cream filling are a fruity twist on traditional chocolate brownies. The tangy red currants complement the rich chocolate and creamy filling perfectly.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup red currants, chopped
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Four large eggs
Softened cream cheese, 8 oz
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Time Needed

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Cream the butter and sugar together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
One at a time, beat in the eggs, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Stir in the dry ingredients gradually until well combined.
Incorporate the chopped red currants.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean, in the prepared baking pan.
Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack in the pan.
Cream the cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl until smooth.
Incorporate the sugar and vanilla extract.
Separately, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.
Spread the cooled brownies with the cream cheese filling.
Refrigerate for at least an hour, or until the filling has firmed up.
Serve cut into squares.
