  • Total Time: 50-55 minutes
  • Yield: 16 brownies 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Brownie Batter

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup (35g) high-quality cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour

Fruit

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, washed, dried, and sliced (halves or quarters)

Coating

  • 6 oz (170g) high-quality dark chocolate for coating

Instructions

  1. Prep the Strawberries and Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries to prevent sogginess, then slice them into halves or quarters depending on size. Set aside.
  2. Make the Chocolate Brownie Batter: Gently melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a double boiler or microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth. Let cool slightly, then whisk in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Beat in the eggs one at a time until glossy and combined. Fold in the cocoa powder and all-purpose flour gently until just combined, avoiding overmixing to preserve a fudgy texture.
  3. Add Strawberries to the Batter: Carefully fold the fresh strawberries into the batter, ensuring they remain mostly intact and evenly dispersed to create fruity pockets in the brownies.
  4. Bake and Cool: Pour the batter into a greased or parchment-lined baking pan, spread evenly, and bake for 25-30 minutes. Edges should be set while the center remains slightly soft and gooey. Let brownies cool completely on a wire rack before coating.
  5. Coat with Melted Dark Chocolate: Slowly melt the dark chocolate over low heat until smooth. Dip each cooled brownie square partially or fully into the melted chocolate and place on parchment paper to set. Allow the coating to harden before serving.

Notes

  • Use ripe, sweet strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • Do not overbake to maintain the fudgy center; remove when edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
  • Cool brownies completely before coating to help chocolate set glossy and firm.
  • Melt chocolate gently over low heat to prevent burning or seizing.
  • Use room temperature ingredients for even mixing and optimal batter texture.
  • To cut without cracking the chocolate coating, use a sharp knife warmed under hot water and dried between cuts.
