Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup 115 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup 200 g granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup 35 g unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup 65 g all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries chopped (plus more for topping)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate for ganache
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream for ganache

Equipment

  • Oven
  • 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Sifter for cocoa powder and flour
  • Small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl
  • Cooling rack
  • Knife for chopping strawberries and chocolate

Method
 

  1. Preheat Oven:
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  3. Prepare the Brownie Batter:
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk again until fully incorporated.
  5. Add Dry Ingredients:
  6. Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix gently until no streaks of flour remain, but do not overmix.
  7. Fold in Strawberries:
  8. Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries. The batter will be thick and moist.
  9. Bake:
  10. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  11. Cool Completely:
  12. Let the brownies cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Prepare Chocolate Ganache:
  14. In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, heat the heavy cream until just steaming (not boiling). Pour it over the chocolate chips and let sit for 1 minute. Stir until smooth and glossy.
  15. Top and Serve:
  16. Pour the ganache over the cooled brownies. Top each square with a fresh strawberry for a beautiful finish. Let the ganache set slightly before slicing into squares.
