Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
  • Combine melted butter, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl, whisking until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture gradually, stirring gently until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  • Bake in your preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, checking with a toothpick for doneness.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before moving to the next step.
  • Toss sliced strawberries with granulated sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan until simmering, then stir in the chocolate chips until melted and smooth.
  • Spread the sweet sliced strawberries evenly over the cooled brownies, then drizzle the chocolate glaze on top.
  • Refrigerate the brownies for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate glaze is set. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

For an optional touch, dust with powdered sugar before serving for a beautiful finish. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the fridge.
