Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan and line the bottom and sides with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Lightly grease the parchment.

  3. Make the brownies: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the chocolate chips until completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.

  4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.

  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla.

  6. Mix in the cooled, melted chocolate slowly and steadily, pouring it into the bowl.

  7. Mix in the dry ingredients in increments at low speed until just combined. If necessary, finish incorporating the batter by hand with a rubber spatula. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan.

  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Place the pan on a wire rack and allow the brownies to cool completely for 30 to 40 minutes.

  9. To prepare the topping, spread the raspberry jam evenly over the brown
