- 1/2 cup (42 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper so that the paper overhangs on two opposite sides. Grease the paper and any exposed parts of the inside of the pan.
- Place the butter and chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave at half-power in 30-second increments until the butter has melted and the chocolate melts when stirred. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt . Set aside.
- Place the sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a mixing bowl, and mix well.
- Add the sugar mixture to the chocolate mixture, and mix well. Then add the flour mixture, and mix until combined.
- Stir in the chopped strawberries.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and spread evenly. Dollop the jam over the top of the batter, and use a thin knife to swirl into the brownies. If you like, place more strawberries on top of the batter.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs.
- Place the pan on a wire rack, and allow the brownies to cool completely. Use the overhanging lining to lift the brownies out of the pan and onto a cutting board to cut into squares. (These are fudgy, gooey brownies, so you may want to refrigerate the brownies briefly before cutting them.)
Notes
- *You'll need 4 or 5 medium strawberries. If you want to add a few slices or chopped berries on top of the brownies before baking, you'll need another 1 or 2 strawberries.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
