Ingredients

  • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • cups granulated sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 10 –12 drops Wilton red food coloring adjust to desired color
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips divided

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, cocoa powder, salt, and sugar until fully combined.
  • Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and vinegar. Mix until the batter is smooth.
  • Gently fold in the flour. Before fully incorporating the flour, add 7 drops of red food coloring, then continue adding drops until the desired red color is reached.
  • Fold in ½ cup of the white chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of white chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter.
  • Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 1 hour before slicing into squares and serving.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.
Start with fewer drops of red food coloring and adjust as needed to reach the preferred shade.
Parchment paper makes for easier removal and cleaner edges when slicing.
