Recipe: Red Velvet Brownies with White Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
Summary: I nearly had to wipe the drool off of my keyboard from when I came across the recipe. A chewy, dense, bright red (and in my opinion, all red velvet should be) brownie topped with a fluffy white chocolate buttercream frosting that actually tastes like the white chocolate I fell in love with as a child.
Ingredients
- For the brownies:
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 oz red food coloring (or a scant 2 tbsp)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract, divided
- 1/2 cup (8 tbsp) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- For the white chocolate buttercream frosting:
- 1/2 cup (8 tbsp) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 4 oz good-quality white chocolate (not chips), melted – I recommend Callebaut
- 1 – 2 tbsp heavy cream
