Instructions

Strawberry Brownies

Preheat oven to 325°F, spray a 9X9-inch square pan with baking nonstick spray. Line the bottom and 2 sides of the pan with parchment paper. Spray again.
In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside. In a small bowl combine diced strawberries, cane sugar, and a drizzle of honey.
1 cup All-purpose flour, 1 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon Cornstarch, ½ teaspoon Salt, 1 cup Diced strawberries, 2 teaspoon Wholesome Organic Fair Trade Cane Sugar, Drizzle of Wholesome Organic Fair Trade Raw Unfiltered Honey
Using a mixer with a whisk attachment, add the sugar, eggs, and egg yolk. Beat on high speed for 5 minutes.
2 cups Wholesome Organic Fair Trade Cane Sugar, 3 Large eggs, 1 Egg yolk
Add in the melted butter, oil, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix on low until combined. Add in the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
½ cup Unsalted butter, ½ cup Oil, 2 tablespoon Wholesome Organic Fair Trade Raw Unfiltered Honey, 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
Take off the mixer and use a rubber spatula to mix to make sure it is all combined. Separate out ¼ of the batter. Spread the ¼ of the batter in the pan. (This is to prevent the strawberries being on the bottom of the brownies).
Drain the juice out of the bowl with the fresh strawberries. Add in the flour and mix. Add the fresh strawberries and freeze dried strawberries to the remaining batter. Pour the batter in the pan and spread smooth.
1 cup Freeze dried strawberries, 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
Bake for 40-50 minutes. The brownies are done baking when a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs. If any batter comes out, bake for another 5 minutes.
Place the pan on a cooling rack to cool completely.

Strawberry Glaze

In a small bowl, combine sifted powdered sugar, ground freeze dried strawberries, and milk. Pour glaze on top of brownies.
1 cup Wholesome Organic Fair Trade Powdered Confectioners Sugar, ½ cup Ground freeze dried strawberries, 2 tablespoon Milk
For best results, wait for the glaze to harden before cutting into the brownies.

Notes

Flour- Make sure flour is spooned and leveled or use a kitchen scale. Compacted flour can dry out the brownies and cause them to be cakey.

High altitude baking- Add an extra 1 tablespoon of flour.

Pull out dairy ingredients 2 hours before baking.
