RECIPE

Blood Orange EVOO Brownies

Chocolate and orange are a classic combination, but not one often seen in brownies (or if it is, flavored with little more than a bit of zest or orange extract). This lovely layered treat is as much about the citrus curd as it is about the brownie, resulting in a rush of flavor and luscious texture in each and every bite.

Brownies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Blood Orange EVOO
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Ig Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • ⅓ cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Baking Powder
  • Zest of 1 Orange (optional, for extra flavor)
  • ½ cup Chocolate chips (optional, for extra richness)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 3500F.
  2. Grease and flour a square baking pan (8×8 inches) or line it with
    parchment paper for easier removal.

    Mix until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated.

  6. In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, salt,
    and baking powder.

    mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

    distributed.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out
    evenly.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a
