Instructions How to Make Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies Recipe
- Prepare brownie batter according to package instructions and let cool completely. For easy removal, line your baking pan with parchment paper before baking the brownies.
- Add sliced strawberries on top in one even layer.
- In a microwave safe bowl, place chocolate chips and heavy whipping cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir mixture every 30 seconds until mixture is melted and a smooth consistency. (Can also melt in a saucepan on the stovetop)
- Pour the melted chocolate over the strawberries topped brownies in one even layer, spreading ganache over strawberries completely.
- Refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set.
How Long Can You Store Chocolate Ganache Strawberry Brownies?
- These brownies will only stay fresh for 1-2 days at the most, if they last that long, but should be refrigerated in the refrigerator in an airtight container for best results. Bring to room temperature or eat right out of the fridge!
Can You Freeze These Brownies?
- Chocolate covered strawberry brownies do not freeze well and the strawberries will make the brownies super soggy.
Can I Use Other Fruits?
- Raspberries or blackberries would work well in these, give them a try!
Tips for Making Brownies
- Don’t over bake the brownies for a fudgier brownie treat. If you over bake, the brownies will be dry and will not compliment the strawberries and ganache you’re adding to the brownies.
- Serve these brownies within 1-2 days after making. Since you’re using fresh strawberries, the juice from the strawberries will start to break down and will make the brownies soggy, much like chocolate covered strawberries.
In conclusion, whether you’re a chocolate lover or a fruit fanatic, these easy chocolate covered strawberry brownies are sure to satisfy your cravings. By combining the rich, fudgy goodness of brownies with the fresh, juicy sweetness of strawberries, this dessert truly hits the sweet spot when you’re craving chocolate and strawberry flavor!
