Best Brownies (with Strawberry Wine)

Our freshly bottled Strawberry wine is DIVINE with chocolate…especially warm chocolate brownies straight out of the oven. 

Of course, you could make them from a mix, but why not try making them from scratch? This batter can be doubled and divided evenly between two 8-inch pans or poured into one 13X9-inch pan – bake for 28-ish min in 13X9-inch pan.

  • 8 T (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
  • 2/3 C  all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 t baking powder
  • 1/4 t salt
  • 1 C sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 t vanilla
  1. Adjust oven rack to center and heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt chocolate and butter together in a bowl set over a steaming pot of water (double-boiler style) or in a bowl in microwave on medium power. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes (can be warm, you just don’t want the eggs to scramble a few steps down). Add a Tablespoon or two of our Strawberry Wine to the chocolate mixture for an extra kick!
  2. Measure flour, baking powder, and salt in small bowl. Whisk together, set aside.
  3. Whisk sugar into cooled chocolate mixture.  Whisk in eggs and vanilla, then fold in flour mixture (and nuts) until just combined.
  4. Pour batter into greased 8-inch square metal pan, 2 inches deep; bake until toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few fudgy crumbs, about 25-30 minutes. If batter coats toothpick, return pan for 2-4 minutes.
  5. Butterfly 2 warm brownies on a plate. Drizzle some of our Strawberry Wine on top & add a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream. And, most importantly, make sure you skip dinner and go straight to dessert!! <3
