A chocolate covered strawberry is just about as perfect as it gets.  That bright, sweet fruit and rich, velvety chocolate seem like they were made for each other.  However, I’m not always up for dipping a bunch of berries in chocolate and waiting for them to set.  So when the craving hits, this recipe is my go-to.

Strawberry Jam Brownies before baking.

You can create a gorgeous marbled effect with your cream cheese and jam topping by adding dollops of both to the top of the brownie batter and running a butter knife or wooden skewer through them.  My topping here is more spread on than marbled simply because I got a little carried away. 

That happens sometimes.  Getting carried away.  Especially when I’m thinking about chocolate… and strawberries.

There are times when you just want all the dessert- chocolate, cheesecake, berries.  And this Loaded Strawberry Jam Brownie recipe really delivers!  

Tips for the Best Homemade Brownies

  • Using really good chocolate and cocoa powder will make your brownies unbelievable good, so think quality when choosing your ingredients. 
  • Also, the jam brings a lot of sweetness to the bake.  Using bittersweet baking chocolate and semi sweet chips keeps everything in balance.
  • It’s important to let these brownies cool before slicing them.  The cheesecake topping and jam will be a runny mess if you don’t.  I actually think these are best the next day!
  • Also make sure you bake until the center doesn’t jiggle.  If you feel like your edges are getting too brown, either cover with foil and continue to bake or lower the temp to 325 and bake a little longer than the specified bake time.  I’ve had to do both before.

    Hi, Stacey!
    I came over from FB for the Buster Bar Ice Cream Dessert, but couldn’t leave before taking a peek around!
    I’ve a question about these Strawberry Jam Brownies (which I fully intend to make ASAP).
    Have you tried freezing these? If possible, I’d like to keep some of these on hand for funeral meals at church.

      Hi, Mary! I so glad that you stayed and looked around! Welcome! I have never frozen these, but I don’t see why they wouldn’t freeze well after being baked. I do know that, while they are delicious when they’re warm, they are something else when chilled. I think they would work well for what you are planning. Thank you so much for blessing others when they need it most!
