Method

  • 1. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease and line the base and sides of a 20cm square cake pan with baking paper, leaving the edges overhanging.

  • 2. In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate, butter and food colouring together on low heat. Then allow to cool down for 20 minutes.

  • 3. In a small bowl, combine the eggs and sour cream. Add to the chocolate mixture with the flour and sugar; stir to combine. Fold in the white chocolate.

  • 4. Pour into the pan, smoothing the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the centre is just cooked. Allow to cool, then remove from the pan.

  • Topping:

  • 1. For the topping, in a small bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, icing sugar, butter and vanilla together until smooth.

  • 2. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 1cm round plain nozzle, and pipe dollops over the brownie.

  • 3. Top with the strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. Cut into squares to serve.

  • Tip: Store in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresher for longer.
