Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Mix Ingredients
- 1 box Brownie Mix (plus ingredients required on the box, typically eggs, oil, and water)
Fruit and Jam
- 1 cup fresh Raspberries
- 2 tbsp Raspberry Jam
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to the temperature specified on the boxed brownie mix instructions for an 8 x 8 inch baking pan. Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray and set it aside.
- Prepare the brownie batter: Follow the directions on the back of the brownie mix box to mix your batter. This typically involves combining the brownie mix with eggs, oil, and water.
- Incorporate the raspberries: Gently fold 1 cup of fresh raspberries into the brownie batter to disperse them evenly without crushing.
- Add raspberry jam swirls: Drop small dollops of raspberry jam on top of the batter. Using the tip of a knife, swirl the jam into the batter to create a marbled effect.
- Decorate with extra raspberries: Press additional raspberries onto the top surface of the brownie batter to add fresh texture and flavor.
- Bake the brownies: Place the pan in the oven and bake according to the time indicated on your brownie mix box instructions. Usually, this ranges from 25 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Cool and serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use fresh raspberries for the best texture and flavor; frozen raspberries may add excess moisture.
- Swirling the jam gently without overmixing helps preserve the marbled look.
- Check the brownies a few minutes before the recommended baking time ends to avoid overbaking.
- If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant finish.
- This recipe can be made with any boxed brownie mix; adjust prep and bake times according to the package instructions.
