Ingredients
  

For the Brownies:

1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup chopped strawberries (for folding)

For the Creamy Frosting:

4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

2 cups powdered sugar

1/4 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped

1 tsp vanilla extract

1-2 tbsp milk (as needed for consistency)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

    Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the pureed strawberries, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

        Add Fresh Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.

          Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

            Prepare the Frosting: While the brownies cool, make the creamy frosting. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until creamy and smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until fully combined.

              Add Strawberries and Vanilla: Stir in the finely chopped strawberries and vanilla extract. If the frosting is too thick, add milk one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

                Frost the Brownies: Once the brownies are completely cool, lift them out of the pan using the parchment paper. Spread the creamy frosting over the top using a spatula.

                  Slice and Serve: Cut into squares or rectangles and enjoy your delicious Strawberry Bliss Brownies! Garnish with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
