Description

Rich chocolate brownie batter is swirled with salted caramel and topped with crunchy green pistachios before baking, creating a beautiful and delicious treat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 180 gr (1 cup) dark chocolate
  • 150 gr (2/3 cup) unsalted butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 200 gr (7/8 cup) sugar
  • 150 gr (1 + 1/4 cup) ground almonds
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 tbsp salted dulce de leche
  • 1 tbsp pistachios, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
  2. In a saucepan with a thick bottom, combine the dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Melt over low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until combined.
  5. Add the ground almonds and a pinch of salt, folding gently until just incorporated.
  6. Pour the batter into a lined baking dish.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of salted dulce de leche over the brownie batter and use a knife to swirl it through the batter.
  8. Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the top.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Allow to cool in the pan before slicing and serving.

Notes

These brownies are made with almond flour for a moist texture and a nutty flavor. The salted dulce de leche can be homemade using the provided link. Pistachios add a nice crunch and visual appeal. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can substitute the pistachios with other nuts like walnuts or pecans if desired.
