Description

Delight in these decadent Chocolate Covered Strawberry Brownies featuring rich, fudgy brownies topped with a luscious layer of strawberry jam, fresh sliced strawberries, and a glossy chocolate coating sprinkled with flaky salt. Perfect for a luscious dessert that combines fruity freshness with chocolate indulgence.


Ingredients

Brownie Base

  • 1 Box Brownie Mix (such as Ghirardelli)

Toppings

  • 1 Jar Strawberry Jam
  • 3 Cups Strawberries, sliced
  • 1 ¾ Cups Chocolate Chips
  • 2 Teaspoons Coconut Oil
  • Flaky Salt, for sprinkling


Instructions

  1. Prepare Brownies: Follow the instructions on the brownie mix package to bake the brownies. Once baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely to ensure the toppings won’t melt or slide off.
  2. Spread Strawberry Jam: When brownies are fully cooled, evenly spread a layer of strawberry jam all over the surface, making sure to reach the edges for consistent flavor in every bite.
  3. Add Fresh Strawberries: Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the jam in slightly overlapping rows, pressing them gently into the jam to secure them and distribute the fresh strawberry flavor evenly.
  4. Melt Chocolate: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between sessions until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, usually about 2 to 3 cycles.
  5. Pour and Spread Chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate over the layer of strawberries and jam. Use a spatula to spread it into an even coating covering the entire surface.
  6. Finish with Flaky Salt and Chill: Sprinkle flaky salt generously over the melted chocolate to enhance the flavor. Transfer the brownies to the freezer for 10 minutes or refrigerator for 20 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.
  7. Slice and Serve: Once the chocolate topping is set, cut the brownies into squares and serve immediately for a delicious treat.

Notes

  • Ensure brownies are fully cooled before adding toppings to prevent melting and sliding.
  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for best melting and flavor results.
  • Fresh strawberries can be substituted with frozen if fresh are not available, but thaw and drain before use to avoid sogginess.
  • Adjust the amount of flaky salt to taste; it enhances the chocolate flavor beautifully.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
