Raspberry Brownies

Jump to Recipe

Fudgy raspberry brownies that are irresistibly chewy with bursts of raspberry in every bite. Guaranteed to become your new favorite brownie. 

Fudgy and chewy raspberry browbies studded with raspberries in every bite!

It's been a while since I've had a batch of these raspberry brownies and I needed to have some in my life asap. While I was at it, I decided I may as well revamp the recipe I had on the site so you can see better pictures and the slight improvements I made to the recipe.

There isn't anything better than a fudgy, chewy batch of raspberry brownies

In the past I've made the recipe using broken pieces of frozen raspberries inside the brownies. This time, I wanted to test the recipe using fresh raspberries. The verdict? They are both amazing, but I recommend still cutting up the fresh raspberries into smaller pieces so that the fresh raspberries don't sink to the bottom and make it hard to pick up your brownie slices.

I also tested a theory with how to mix your brownies in the past, I only just mixed the brownie batter so the flour was mixed in. This time, I gave it a more vigorous mix. This is to activate the gluten and is supposed to give the raspberry brownies more chew. I absolutely love this method and it works amazingly well.  I will definitely be adding this note to my chewy brownies recipe.

You won't be able to resist these fudgy, chewy raspberry brownies with burst of raspberry in every bite!

These raspberry brownies would make the perfect Valentines' Day dessert for anyone who loves berries and chocolate (and who doesn't love that combination?). Top it with a heaping scoop of ice cream for an even more amazing treat. With extra chocolate sauce and raspberries on top of course! If you really want to get decadent, you can cut them in squares to make a parfait or to blend into a milkshake. You really can't go wrong!

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, with some overhang to act as a sling.
  • In a small bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, and salt together. Set aside.
  • In a double boiler, add the butter and chocolate together. Heat until both are melted, mixing well. Stir in the sugar and beat well. Beat the eggs in vigorously, one at a time. Whisk in the extracts, then add the flour mixture and mix well for about a minute. Fold in the frozen raspberries.
  • Pour into the baking pan and top with the fresh raspberries.
  • Bake for about 35 - 40 minutes, or until the center is no longer jiggly. Due to the fudginess of the brownies, the toothpick test may not work. Allow to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before removing and allowing to cool completely on a wire rack.

    The raspberries look fresh! Did you add them on top after or before baking?

      For the photos, I added them after, but you should add them before

    I love Middle Sister wines! I always drink them when I get together with my sisters too (there are 3 of us). Next time I should bring brownies too!

    Happy birthday to your sister!!! I'm too young to drink wine so I don't know what they actually taste like... :/
    However, these brownies must taste absolutely amazing!!! I have no doubt about it, I mean there's that crunchy, crackily top, fudgy inside and there's FRUIT!!! 😀

      You know what, I didn't even like wine until I was about 25 anyway, so you aren't missing out just yet. I definitely think its something you begin to like over time. But wine or no wine, these brownies are delicious. Plus the raspberries means its practically a health food 😉

    Aww, I love the name of the wine. I might be the sweet and sassy one too...or maybe the "wild one," although "wild" in my family doesn't mean shaving her head or anything like that;p Your pictures of these brownies are gorgeous! Hope you had fun celebrating your sister's birthday!
