Time 3h15m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the pan
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup seedless strawberry jam

Steps:

  • For the brownies: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, pressing it into the corners and up the sides; leave an overhang on 2 sides. Butter the foil and dust with flour. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the bittersweet chocolate and cook, stirring constantly, until mostly melted. Remove from the heat and continue to stir until the chocolate is completely melted.
  • Add the granulated sugar, cocoa powder and salt to the saucepan and stir until combined. Add the eggs 1 at a time, stirring well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Add the flour and stir until incorporated.
  • Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it to fill the pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few crumbs, about 40 minutes.
  • Let cool in the pan on a rack, about 30 minutes. Lift the brownies out of the pan using the foil and transfer to a cutting board to cool completely before frosting.
  • For the peanut butter frosting: Using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream together the confectioners' sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Then beat in the peanut butter and cream cheese.
  • Frost the top of the brownies. Add 1 teaspoon water to the jam in a small bowl and stir to combine. Dollop the jam evenly on top of the frosting and use a butter knife to gently swirl it in. Cut into squares and serve.
