Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Base
- 1 (18 oz) box brownie mix (prepared according to box instructions)
Topping
- 2 cups chopped strawberries
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- Prepare Brownies: Follow the package instructions to prepare the brownie batter, bake as directed, and allow the brownies to cool completely on a wire rack to ensure the topping doesn’t melt.
- Prepare Strawberries: Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly, then chop them into bite-sized pieces. Spread the chopped strawberries evenly over the cooled brownies to create a fresh, flavorful layer.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each interval until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
- Drizzle Chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate into a ziplock bag and snip off a small corner to create a piping hole. Drizzle the chocolate evenly over the strawberries on the brownies.
- Set Chocolate: Place the assembled brownies in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the chocolate drizzle to harden and set properly.
- Serve: Once set, slice the brownies into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature for a deliciously indulgent dessert.
Notes
- Ensure brownies are completely cooled before adding strawberries to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and texture contrast.
- You can substitute vegetable oil with coconut oil for a subtle coconut flavor.
- Store leftover brownies in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to keep the chocolate drizzle firm.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate drizzle before setting.
