Easy to make and perfect for any occasion, these brownies deliver a perfect balance of fudgy chocolate and juicy strawberry flavor in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh Fruit

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, washed and roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients and Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Wash and roughly chop fresh strawberries to prepare for folding into the batter.
  2. Melt Butter and Mix Sugar: In a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, gently melt the butter until smooth. Stir in the granulated sugar thoroughly for a smooth, rich base, then allow it to cool slightly before adding eggs.
  3. Combine Eggs and Vanilla: Whisk the eggs with the vanilla extract until fully blended, then slowly incorporate this mixture into the butter and sugar, creating a silky batter ready for dry ingredients.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to avoid lumps. Gently fold these into the wet mixture, being careful not to overmix, to maintain a tender brownie texture.
  5. Fold in Strawberries: Fold in the chopped strawberries delicately to evenly distribute fresh fruit without breaking them down too much, ensuring even fruity bursts through the brownies.
  6. Bake Until Set: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs for the perfect fudgy result.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting to help them set properly. This step keeps the brownies moist and prevents crumbling during slicing.

Notes

  • Fresh Strawberry Prep: Use ripe, firm strawberries for the best texture and avoid excess moisture.
  • Don’t Overmix: Fold ingredients gently to keep brownies tender and fudgy rather than cakey.
  • Check Baking Time: Start checking your brownies 5 minutes before the timer ends to avoid drying out.
  • Line Your Pan: Use parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner edges.
  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Bring eggs and butter close to room temperature to help everything blend smoothly.
