Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius.
Melt the butter and the chocolate in a double boiler (boil some water in a large pan, put another heat proof bowl on top to melt the ingredients). You can save your time by melting them in microwave but the final texture wont come out as smooth.
Sift and mix the dry ingredients
Whisk the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture. Add the dry ingredients a spoon at a time to make sure theres no lump
Add the eggs and orange extract. Mix well until you get the silky texture
Line and grease a 20x20 cm baking pan with parchment paper, butter, and some flour. Pour the batter into the pan. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes
Cool the brownie on a wire rack while preparing the cream
Mix the mascarpone and the sugar with a plastic spatula until well incorporated
Once the brownie is cooled down, cut the outer layer of the brownie to create a nice even layer
Cut the brownie in half. Smear the cream on top of one part
Stack the other part of the brownie and dust with a spoonful of confectioners sugar
The perfect way to enjoy the brownie is pairing it with a cup of black coffee
