Notes

• Adjust baking time slightly if using a glass or metal pan, as recommended by your brownie mix packaging.
• For extra raspberry flavor, serve with a drizzle of warmed raspberry jam or a dusting of powdered sugar.
• Ensure not to overmix batter after adding raspberries to keep them whole and avoid discoloring the batter.
• Storage: Keep brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
