Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and smooth it into an even layer.
Baking
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Topping
- Once cooled, spread the whipped cream or frosting evenly over the brownies.
- Sprinkle the crushed freeze-dried strawberries over the whipped cream layer for that crunchy topping.
- Cut the brownies into squares and enjoy!
