Chocolate Strawberry Brownies Recipe
These brownies start with a boxed fudge mix and are topped with fresh strawberries and a smooth chocolate ganache. It’s a simple layered dessert that combines rich chocolate and fresh fruit in every slice. Best served chilled for clean cuts and defined layers.
Ingredients
- 1 (18-ounce) box fudge brownie mix (I used n Duncan Hines)
- Ingredients listed on brownie mix box (typically eggs, oil, and water)
- 1 pound fresh strawberries washed, hulled, halved, and patted dry
- 1 (12-ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven according to the brownie mix package directions and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare and bake the brownies according to package instructions. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.
- Arrange the halved strawberries cut-side down in a single layer over the cooled brownies.
- Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat until just simmering. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for 2–3 minutes, then stir until smooth.
- Pour the ganache over the strawberries, spreading gently to cover.
- Refrigerate for 1 hour or until set before slicing.
Notes
- Pat strawberries completely dry to prevent excess moisture.
- Store Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Because of the fresh strawberries, these brownies are best enjoyed within 1–2 days for optimal texture and freshness.
- If stacking slices, place parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking.
