Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, greasing it lightly.
  2. Melt ½ cup of unsalted butter and whisk in 1 cup of granulated sugar until glossy. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix until silky.
  3. Incorporate 1 cup of all-purpose flour, ⅓ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt into the wet mixture; stir gently until just combined.
  4. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of raspberries and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes until raspberries break down, cooling slightly afterward.
  5. Pour two-thirds of the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spread it evenly, then spoon the raspberry mixture over it. Dollop the remaining batter and swirl together.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until edges are set, testing with a toothpick for doneness.
  7. Allow brownies to cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
