📝 Ingredients:
For the Brownies:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
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
For the Chocolate Dipped Strawberries:
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons coconut oil or vegetable oil
Fresh strawberries, washed and dried thoroughly
Sprinkles or crushed nuts (optional, for decoration)
🧑🍳 Instructions:
Prepare the Brownies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined. The batter will be thick. Spread the brownie batter evenly in the prepared pan.
Bake:
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Prepare the Chocolate Dipped Strawberries:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, covering about two-thirds of the berry. Allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place the dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined tray. If desired, sprinkle with sprinkles or crushed nuts before the chocolate sets.
Assemble:
Once the brownies are completely cooled, cut them into squares. Arrange the chocolate-dipped strawberries on top of the brownies or place them on a serving platter alongside the brownies.
Serve:
Serve the Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Brownies as a decadent treat for any occasion. Enjoy the delightful combination of rich brownie and fresh fruit!
