Pro Tips for Perfect Blueberry Brownies

Don’t Overmix – This keeps the brownies soft and fudgy.
Use Fresh or Frozen Blueberries – Frozen berries work well but don’t thaw them first.
For Extra Moist Brownies – Slightly underbake them and let them set as they cool.

Storage & Reheating

• Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
• Freeze: Freeze individually wrapped brownies for up to 2 months.
• Reheat: Microwave for 10-15 seconds for a warm, gooey texture.
