If you're looking to upgrade your usual brownies, this strawberry brownies recipe is the way to go. It's simple to make and packed with flavor that will have everyone coming back for more.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the melted chocolate and butter mixture to the sugar mixture and stir until well combined.
Sift the flour and salt together, then fold them into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the diced strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Top with sliced strawberries and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
