I am always in search a my new “favorite” brownie, it has to be fudge, moist and most of all chocolatey. Usually I am a purist and like to eat them plain with no chips, chunks, or additions.

But this time I thought as it was summer and berries are everywhere, I would combine my new favorite brownie and raspberries which happen to be my favorite berry. What a winning combination!

I am now a fan of delectable fresh raspberries folded into these rich dark chocolate fudgy raspberry brownies! Not to mention, this recipe could not be easier as you basically make it in one pan, then pour it into the prepared pan.

  • Switch out the berries. Strawberries, mulberries, and blackberries will also be delicious.
