Ingredients
Scale
For the Brownies:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Strawberry Layer:
- 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
For the Chocolate Topping:
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Mix the brownie batter: In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake the brownies: Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs. Cool completely.
- Prepare the strawberries: Mix sliced strawberries with sugar. Let sit to release juices, then blot excess moisture. Arrange strawberries over the brownies.
- Make the chocolate topping: Heat chocolate chips and heavy cream in the microwave, then pour over the strawberries and spread evenly.
- Chill and serve: Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to set the chocolate. Slice and serve.
Notes
- Use room-temperature strawberries for best flavor and texture.
- For a twist, add a layer of whipped cream under the strawberries.
