Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the white sugar and lemon zest. Gently rub the mixture between your fingers to release the citrus oils from the zest.
- Add the chopped white chocolate and unsalted butter into a large mixing bowl. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
- Stir the lemon-sugar mixture into the melted chocolate and butter until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition. Add lemon juice and whisk again.
- Sift the all-purpose flour and salt together, then gently fold it into the wet ingredients until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice. Start with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and add more if needed for a smooth glaze consistency. Add lemon zest and mix.
- Once the brownies are cooled, pour the glaze over the top and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Allow the glaze to set for about 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
These brownies are best served chilled and can be stored in an airtight container for a few days. Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon juice in the glaze for your preferred sweetness and tanginess.
