Kitchen Equipment Needed
- 9×13-inch baking pan
- Parchment paper
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Microwave-safe bowl
- Spatula
- Knife
Ingredients
For the Brownies:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) 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
For the Topping:
- 1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Directions
- Prepare the Brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to easily lift the brownies out later.
- Make the Brownie Batter: In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Add the sugar and whisk until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.
- Prepare the Strawberries: Once the brownies have cooled, arrange the halved strawberries evenly over the top.
- Make the Chocolate Ganache: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Assemble the Dessert: Pour the chocolate ganache over the strawberries, spreading it to cover the entire surface.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour to set the ganache. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan, then cut into squares.
Enjoy your Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies, a perfect blend of rich chocolate and fresh strawberries that will delight your taste buds and impress your guests!
