Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies are a decadent dessert that layers rich, fudgy brownies with fresh strawberries and a smooth chocolate topping. This romantic and indulgent treat is perfect for special occasions or anytime you want to wow with minimal effort.

Ingredients

  • For the Brownie Layer:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Optional: ½ cup chocolate chips
  • For the Strawberry Layer:
  • 1½ cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Optional: 2 tbsp strawberry preserves
  • For the Chocolate Topping:
  • ¾ cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream or butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Melt butter and mix with sugar in a bowl. Whisk in eggs and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, and salt just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
  4. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 20–25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  5. Cool completely. Arrange sliced strawberries evenly over the brownies. Optionally, spread a thin layer of strawberry preserves first.
  6. Melt chocolate chips with cream or butter until smooth. Pour over strawberries and spread gently to cover.
  7. Chill for at least 1 hour to set the topping. Slice into squares and serve.
