Raspberry Double Fudge Brownies

Raspberry Double Fudge Brownies

Raspberries, dark chocolate and sea salt… have you understood what is heaven yet? 🙂 

This recipe has been playing in my mind for a few months – and I finally came around to perfecting the recipe. Chunks of delicious raspberries, swirled into dark chocolate brownie batter and then a generous sprinkling of sea salt, baked within 30 minutes… it’s what dreams are made of.

To make things different and sort of innovative, I attempted a slight bit recipe ‘choreography’, as I call it – to dance the recipe to a delightful song. When I’m cooking I always have music on, and sometimes it inspires me in many ways – ways that cannot always be successfully put down in words. At times like this, only music can come to rescue.

My darling cousin, Amar, has helped me execute a vision that was almost indescribable in my head (Good Lord does he patience!), and we spent a fabulous afternoon, dancing-singing and baking to this bad-ass tune!
