Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Base

  • 1 box brownie mix
  • Ingredients listed on the brownie mix box (usually eggs, oil, and water)

Fruit Additions

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp raspberry jam

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to the temperature specified for an 8 x 8 inch pan on the brownie mix box. Lightly spray the baking pan with non-stick spray and set aside to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Brownie Batter: Follow the instructions on the brownie mix box to prepare the batter, combining the mix with the required ingredients until smooth and well blended.
  3. Add Raspberries: Gently fold 1 cup of fresh raspberries into the prepared brownie batter to evenly distribute the fruit without breaking them up too much.
  4. Swirl in Jam: Drop small dollops of raspberry jam over the top of the batter in the pan. Use the tip of a knife to swirl the jam softly into the brownie batter to create a marbled effect.
  5. Top with Raspberries: Press a few additional whole raspberries gently onto the top of the brownie batter for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  6. Bake: Bake the brownies according to the time and temperature instructions provided on the brownie mix box, usually around 20-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs but no wet batter.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe raspberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter after adding raspberries to maintain pockets of fruit.
  • Swirling the jam adds a burst of fruity sweetness but avoid overdoing it to prevent sogginess.
  • Allow brownies to cool completely before slicing for cleaner cuts.
  • Can be served warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
