Notes
So happy you enjoyed them! Thank you so much Kelli and you definitely can’t go wrong with Ghirardelli! YUM!
just took brownies out of oven and they look great, but cutting up 2 bars of Ghiradelli, and then the berries is just too much as i can only use 1 hand, so will either use chips next time, or do something easier!!
otherwise followed recipe exactly, but folded berries into dough as prefer them that way, and used most of a quart!!
9in does look pretty thin, so may just go with 8in next time, thc again:) kelli
Awesome! thank you Kelli for letting me know!! xo
HEY TESS, made these 1 more time with the last sweer? berries of the season; couldn’t even taste the peaches, though brownies were good! again used vanilla and 1 t of coffee, 85% dark choc and 4oz of semi chips and batter was even thicker this time; getting it into 9×9 pan was hard work! as good as they are, dont have the strength in my hand to fold and get these into pan, but they are great, so thx again 4 everything:):
Hi Kelli! Yes you could use an 8×8 pan for thicker brownies, but bake longer by 5-10 minutes. Yes you could use any fruit or no fruit, whatever you prefer. You can always add another egg or reduce the flour by a couple of tablespoons if you feel the batter is too thick for your liking. Have a great holiday weekend!! xo
kim, just made the brownies again but used 1.5 peaches instead of berries; the look great, and see buyer is haveing 4 teeth pulled tomorrow, i’ll gift these to neighbors, friends, but used 1 bar of 85% dark and 1/2c of semi-sweet, but again, batter so think, really hard to get into pan, the peaches helped just a bit!
what about using blueberries, or no fruit at all?
thx again:): kelli; may use an 8in pan next time to make them thicker, have you ever tried that???
I wouldn’t use big chunks of peaches though, cut them smaller if you’re adding them in. So happy to hear the brownies were a hit! YUM!!
hey Tess, theres a lovely young gal who wanted something very chocolatey, and i have a triple chocolate banana bread thats divine; but then she asked for s’berries also, so i thought for this recipe! only problem is this late, berries are problematic, and even though i “washed” 2 qts just the other night, they were all moldy the next day!!! So i have a question: may i use fresh peaches to replace the berries? they’re so much easier, and i just purchased 9 nice size ones to ripen 4 baking!! pls reply asap, as shes buying this psatry and want to get started as soon as a few peaches have ripened!! thanks 4 very much: her boss had 1 brownie and loved it!!!
just put brownies into oven but they smell delish! dont like milk chocolate so used 2 high qualty dark choc of 85%, 8 very plumb berries, sifted the cocoa/flour together, used vanilla, and cause the batter was almost too thick to stir, and really wanted the cocoa to bloom, added a tiny cup of hot water w/a teaspoon of instant decaf to the mix and it looked perfect!!
cant wait to taste, as gift brownies to many friends, doctors for b’days, Xmas, but never keep any 4 me, and recently have eyed then while marketing, and since i’d just bought berries, these were a perfect combo of 2 things i adore! willl gift most of it, but will keep some 4 me!! thx 4 your very interesting recipe :): kelli
They are fudgy brownies, so if you want them more cakey, you can add another egg. If your eggs are small or you overbeat the batter that can have an effect on the brownies. Check your baking powder expiration date. That can also affect how the brownies turn out. Hope that helps Alexis.
I just made these and found that mine didn’t really rise as well. What could be wrong?
Thank you so much! I hope you try them, they are exceptionally yummy!! 🙂
Extraordinary photographs! I felt watery in the mouth having seen the pics. I would definitely like to prepare it.
YESSSS love how chocolatey these look! plus chocolate + strawberries is always such a good combo (:
This is genius! And so much easier than a bunch of chocolate covered strawberries . I would choose these brownies any day 🙂 XOXO
They look so fudgy Kim! I bet they are addictive. Love those chunks of strawberries and chocolate! I probably say this all the time, but I think you’ve outdone yourself this time!!
I neeeeed these in my life!! They look so soft and addictive! What an awesome flavour combo!
I promise you’ll be addicted Laura! I made this batch specifically for me and I’ve been eating 1-2 a day and keeping them in the fridge. They are really good cold! ha!
Thank you Annie! It definitely is chocolate heaven!
I’m addicted just looking at the recipe! Why why why did you have to make it so easy? Shoot, now I have to make them, really only because I always have dove bars on hand and well, stawberry season, and… thanks for the recipe! And feeding my addiction!
