Ingredients

For the Brownies:

  • 1 box of your favorite brownie mix plus required ingredients listed on the box, such as eggs, oil, and water

For the Chocolate Ganache:

  • 2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

For Topping:

  • 1 lbs Fresh strawberries washed and hulled

Instructions

Make the brownies

  • Preheat the oven to 350F then line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper.
  • Prepare brownie mix according to package instructions.
  • Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and bake according to the package instructions. Use a toothpick to check for doneness. You want to insert the toothpick in the center of the brownie and have it come out with only a few crumbs.
  • Cool brownies completely in the pan on a wire rack

Make the chocolate ganache

  • Heat the whipping cream and butter together in a large measuring cup in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. We want it steamy but not boiling.   
  • Pour it over your chocolate chunks or chips and allow it to melt for about 4-5  minutes before whisking everything together.   
  • Feel free to pop the chocolate ganache in the microwave for 15-second increments if it still isn't fully melted.   
  • Top the cooled brownies with the strawberries then the chocolate ganache and allow the brownies to chill in the fridge for 2-3 hours before slicing into them with a sharp warmed up knife.

Notes

How can I get the perfect brownie slices every time?

My best trick is to use a very sharp knife. Keep it in a tall glass of hot water then clean it with a paper towel before slicing it into your brownies.

Make sure to dip your knife in the hot/warm water in between each slice then clean it well so that you make sure that your slices through that decadent chocolate ganache always come out clean and SHARP!
