FAQs

Can I use fresh or frozen raspberries?

Notes

• Swirling the jam lightly prevents overpowering sweetness and creates pretty patterns.
• Allow brownies to cool fully before slicing for clean edges.
• If fresh raspberries are unavailable, frozen can be used but do not thaw before mixing.
• Customize by adding white chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter if desired.
