Indulge in the rich, fudgy decadence of Marmalade Nut Brownies—a delightful twist on the classic brownie that brings together bittersweet dark chocolate, vibrant orange marmalade, and crunchy toasted nuts. Perfectly balanced between sweet and tangy, these brownies feature luscious swirls of fruity marmalade and a satisfying nutty crunch in every bite. The recipe is simple yet sophisticated, combining melted butter and chocolate with a thick, glossy batter for an irresistibly chewy texture. Layered with dollops of marmalade and topped with chopped walnuts or pecans, these brownies are baked to perfection with a shiny, crackling top. Ideal as a dessert or indulgent snack, this creative treat is guaranteed to impress both chocolate lovers and citrus enthusiasts alike.
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, melt the butter and dark chocolate together. Stir until smooth, then remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is thick and glossy.
Stir in the vanilla extract. Gradually pour in the melted chocolate mixture, whisking constantly until fully combined.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet mixture. Fold gently with a spatula until no streaks of flour remain, being careful not to overmix.
Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
Dollop half of the orange marmalade over the batter in small spoonfuls, then swirl gently with a knife or skewer.
Sprinkle half of the chopped nuts evenly over the marmalade layer.
Pour the remaining brownie batter over the top and spread evenly. Repeat with the rest of the marmalade, swirling lightly, and top with the remaining nuts.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until the top is set and shiny and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 12 squares and serve.
