Ingredients
  

For the Brownies:

1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)

2 cups granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 large eggs

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

For the Chocolate-Covered Strawberries:

1 pound fresh strawberries, washed and dried

8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoothness)

For Garnish:

Sprinkles or crushed nuts (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Create the Brownie Batter: In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat, and whisk in the sugar and vanilla extract until combined. Let the mixture cool slightly before whisking in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix. Fold in the chocolate chips for a rich, fudgy texture.

        Bake the Brownies: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

          Prepare the Strawberries: While the brownies are cooling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a microwave or double boiler. If desired, mix in one teaspoon of coconut oil to make the chocolate smoother. Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Optionally, sprinkle with nuts or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.

            Assemble the Dessert: Once the brownies have cooled, cut them into squares. Place a chocolate-covered strawberry on top of each brownie. If you’d like, you can drizzle any remaining chocolate over the strawberries for added flair.

              Chill: Allow the assembled brownies to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set the chocolate on the strawberries.

                Serve & Enjoy: Slice and serve the brownies chilled or at room temperature for a decadent dessert that will impress your guests!
