Ingredients

  • 1 (18 oz) box brownie mix (prepared according to box instructions)
  • 2 cups chopped strawberries
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Prepare your brownies according to the instructions on the box, and let them cool completely.
  2. Step 2: Wash, dry, and chop your strawberries into bite-sized pieces, then spread them into an even layer on top of the baked brownies.
  3. Step 3: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
  4. Step 4: Transfer the melted chocolate into a ziplock bag, cut off one end, and drizzle over the strawberries.
  5. Step 5: Place the brownies in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour to set the chocolate drizzle, then slice into squares before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the chocolate drizzle before chilling.
  • Use white chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet for a different look and taste.
  • Try fresh raspberries or blueberries instead of strawberries for a fruity variation.

Storage

Store the brownies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat briefly at room temperature before serving or enjoy chilled for a fudgy texture. Avoid freezing, as the fresh strawberries may become mushy.
