Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup high-quality cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (reserve a few for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Chop fresh strawberries into small pieces. Melt the unsalted butter until fully liquid.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and glossy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract for depth of flavor.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt to avoid lumps and ensure even mixing.
  4. Fold Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add dry ingredients into the wet mixture, folding gently to maintain a light texture while mixing evenly.
  5. Add Strawberries and Bake: Carefully fold in chopped strawberries, reserving a few for topping if desired. Pour batter into prepared pan, smooth the surface, and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
  • Don’t overmix to avoid tough brownies; fold just until combined.
  • Choose ripe strawberries for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Start checking doneness at 25 minutes to avoid drying out.
  • Cool completely before cutting to prevent crumbling.
