Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

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

Wet Ingredients

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

Fresh Fruit

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather and measure all ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of your brownies later.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined. This will evenly distribute the rising agent and chocolate flavor.
  3. Combine Butter and Sugar: In a separate large bowl, whisk the melted butter with granulated sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, whisking until the mixture is glossy and fully incorporated.
  4. Incorporate Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently just until combined—avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
  5. Add Strawberries: Gently fold chopped fresh strawberries into the batter to spread those juicy bursts evenly throughout the brownies.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before slicing to keep their fudgy texture intact and make serving easier.

Notes

  • Use ripe strawberries for the best sweetness and juiciness.
  • Don’t overmix; stir just enough to combine ingredients to keep brownies soft.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • Check baking time starting at 25 minutes to avoid overbaking and drying out brownies.
  • Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting to prevent crumbling.
