Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (270g) powdered sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons whole milk
Garnish:
- 1/4 cup (5g) freeze-dried strawberries
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by warming the oven to 350°F and creating a non-stick surface in a 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper and light greasing.
- Create a smooth chocolate base by gently melting butter and white chocolate together in a double boiler, maintaining constant stirring to prevent burning.
- Develop a rich liquid foundation by vigorously whisking eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla until the mixture transforms into a pale, creamy consistency, then seamlessly incorporate the melted chocolate blend.
- Integrate dry components by carefully folding flour and salt into the liquid mixture, then gently fold in finely ground strawberries to distribute flavor evenly.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and bake for approximately 28-31 minutes, ensuring a perfectly textured brownie with a slight firmness in the center.
- Once cooled completely, craft a luscious glaze by combining powdered sugar, milk, and additional ground strawberries, then generously drizzle over the brownies and allow to set before slicing into delectable squares.
Notes
- Prevent Sticking Ensure thorough greasing and parchment lining to guarantee easy brownie removal without breaking.
- Control Moisture When adding ground strawberries, pat them dry first to prevent excess liquid from disrupting the brownie’s texture.
- Temperature Precision Use room temperature eggs for smoother mixing and more consistent baking results.
- Customize Texture For fudgier brownies, reduce baking time by 2-3 minutes and check with a toothpick for moist crumbs.
