Ingredients
  

Brownie Base
  • 1 batch homemade brownies (cooled completely) Use your favorite fudgy or cakey recipe.
Strawberry Topping
  • 12 pieces fresh strawberries, hulled but left whole with stems on where possible For a lower-sugar option, use 70% dark chocolate.
  • 8 oz chocolate for melting (dark or milk) Choose melting chocolate, chocolate chips, or chopped baking chocolate.
  • Optional: sprinkles, finely chopped nuts, or a contrasting white chocolate for drizzling

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Bake a batch of your favorite brownies and let them cool completely in the pan.
  2. Rinse strawberries gently and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
  3. Break chocolate into small pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring between intervals, until fully melted and glossy.
Dipping and Arranging
  1. Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip into the chocolate. Turn to coat evenly and allow excess to drip back into the bowl.
  2. Arrange the chocolate-coated strawberries on top of the cooled brownies while the chocolate is still wet. Set them spaced about an inch apart.
  3. Use a spoon to drizzle any remaining melted chocolate over the strawberries and brownies.
  4. Add sprinkles or chopped nuts immediately if using.
  5. Let the chocolate set at room temperature, or chill briefly in the fridge for faster setting.
Serving
  1. Once the chocolate is firm, slice and serve.
