Ingredients

  • 1 box Brownie Mix (plus ingredients called for on the box)
  • 1 cup Fresh Raspberries
  • 2 tbsp Raspberry Jam

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to the temperature specified on the brownie mix box for an 8 x 8-inch pan. Lightly spray the baking pan with non-stick spray and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the boxed brownie mix according to the directions on the package.
  3. Step 3: Gently fold the fresh raspberries into the prepared brownie batter, being careful not to crush them too much.
  4. Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Drop small dollops of raspberry jam over the top of the batter.
  5. Step 5: Use the tip of a knife to gently swirl the raspberry jam into the brownie batter to create a marbled effect.
  6. Step 6: Press a few additional raspberries onto the surface of the batter for extra fruitiness and visual appeal.
  7. Step 7: Bake according to the time listed on the brownie box, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Step 8: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.

Tips & Variations

  • Use frozen raspberries if fresh are not available; thaw and drain excess liquid before folding into the batter.
  • Try swapping raspberry jam for other fruit preserves like strawberry or blackberry for a different flavor twist.
  • For extra texture, sprinkle some chopped nuts on top before baking.
  • Adding a pinch of cinnamon to the batter can enhance the fruitiness of the raspberries.

Storage

Store the raspberry brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat chilled brownies slightly in the microwave for a soft, fresh-baked feel.

FAQs

Can I use another type of fruit instead of raspberries?

Yes, fresh or frozen berries like blueberries, blackberries, or chopped strawberries can work well. Adjust the jam flavor to complement the fruit you choose.

Do I need to adjust baking time because of the added fruit?

Baking time generally remains about the same, but start checking a few minutes earlier to avoid overbaking. The added moisture from fruit might require a slightly longer bake, so watch for a clean toothpick test.
