Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) 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
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable oil (for melting chocolate)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  3. Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until well combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan.
  7. Arrange the sliced strawberries over the cooled brownies in a single layer.
  8. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  9. Pour the melted chocolate over the strawberries and spread evenly to cover them.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
  11. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Use fresh, dry strawberries to avoid excess moisture.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge to keep the chocolate firm and strawberries fresh.
  • You can use dark chocolate for a richer taste.
