Ingredients
250g unsalted butter
400g white chocolate, chopped
250g caster sugar
4 large eggs
100g soft brown sugar
1tsp white wine vinegar
1tsp vanilla extract
100g plain flour
20g cocoa, sifted
3tsp Dr. Oetker Extra Strong Food Colour Gel in Red
Method
1Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease a 20cm x 30cm rectangular cake tin and line with baking paper.
2Put the butter and 200g of the chopped white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Heat for 5 mins, stirring frequently, until fully melted. Add the caster sugar and stir through. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool for 10 mins.
3Meanwhile, put the eggs in a clean bowl and whisk for 3 mins until lightened in colour. Sprinkle over the brown sugar and whisk again until fully combined.
4Add the egg mixture to the cooled white chocolate mixture and stir gently to combine. Stir through the white wine vinegar and vanilla extract.
5Sprinkle over the plain flour and the cocoa powder, then fold through until combined. Add the red food gel and stir gently until fully incorporated. Pour into the lined tin and level out the surface.
6Melt the remaining 200g white chocolate in a bowl over simmering water as before, then pour over the top of the brownie mix in a swirling motion. Use a skewer or the tip of a thin knife to marble through.
7Bake for 35 mins or until almost fully set.
8Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins. Transfer to a wire rack and cut into a grid of 6 x 4 to give 24 brownies. Leave to cool completely before serving.
