Ingredients
  

For the Brownies:

1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup fresh strawberries (chopped)

For the Chocolate Ganache:

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup heavy cream

Fresh strawberries (whole, for topping)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven:

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

      Make the Brownie Batter:

        In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.

          Mix Dry Ingredients:

            In another bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

              Incorporate Strawberries:

                Gently fold in the chopped strawberries into the brownie batter, ensuring they're evenly distributed.

                  Bake the Brownies:

                    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay!).

                      Prepare the Ganache:

                        While the brownies are cooling, in a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the heavy cream to a simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and glossy.

                          Top the Brownies:

                            Once the brownies have completely cooled, pour the chocolate ganache over the top and spread evenly. Let it set for 10-15 minutes.

                              Finish with Fresh Strawberries:

                                Decorate the top of the ganache with whole fresh strawberries, pressing them gently into the chocolate for a beautiful finish.

                                  Slice and Serve:

                                    Once the ganache has set, slice the brownies into squares. Serve and enjoy the delightful combination of rich chocolate and fresh strawberries!
