Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies combine rich, fudgy brownies with a fresh strawberry layer and a smooth chocolate topping. Elegant yet easy, they’re perfect for special occasions or whenever you want a show-stopping dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chunks (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream or 1 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix melted butter with granulated and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, whisking to combine.
  3. Stir in cocoa powder, flour, and salt until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
  4. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until set with a fudgy center. Let cool completely.
  5. Arrange sliced strawberries in a single layer over the cooled brownies.
  6. Melt chocolate with cream or butter in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler until smooth and glossy.
  7. Pour chocolate over strawberries and spread evenly.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until the chocolate is set.
  9. Slice into squares with a sharp knife, wiping between cuts for clean edges.

Notes

  • Use fresh strawberries only—frozen ones will release too much moisture.
  • White or milk chocolate can be used for the topping, or swirled for a marble effect.
  • Add a thin layer of strawberry jam under the fruit for extra flavor.
  • Boxed brownie mix works great as a shortcut base.
  • Store in the fridge and serve chilled or at room temp.
