Ingredients

Scale

Essential Ingredients

  • 1 cup high-quality cocoa powder
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash and pat dry fresh strawberries, then slice them into thin pieces to ensure even distribution and juicy bites throughout the brownies.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: Gently melt the butter, then combine it with sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk the mixture until smooth and slightly glossy, forming the rich base for the brownies.
  3. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt to avoid lumps and ensure a silky batter texture.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently but thoroughly to preserve a fudgy texture and even chocolate flavor.
  5. Add Strawberries and Optional Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the sliced strawberries and chocolate chips (if using), taking care not to crush the fruit to maintain their vibrancy and juiciness.
  6. Bake and Cool: Pour the batter into a parchment-lined baking pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing to achieve the perfect fudgy consistency.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for smoother batter and better texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the brownies tender and fudgy.
  • Choose ripe but firm strawberries to prevent them from disintegrating during baking.
  • Line your baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and clean edges.
  • Start checking brownies for doneness at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking and drying out.
