Description
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies are a rich dessert combining fudgy brownies, fresh strawberries, and a silky chocolate ganache for a perfectly balanced indulgence.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl, add sugar and whisk to combine. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually stir dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, spread evenly, and bake for 25–30 minutes. Let brownies cool completely in the pan.
- Arrange halved strawberries evenly on top of cooled brownies.
- Combine chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl, microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy.
- Pour ganache over strawberries, spread evenly, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.
Notes
- Use a hot knife for clean cuts, wiping between slices.
- Best consumed within 3 days when refrigerated.
- Do not use frozen strawberries to avoid soggy topping.
