Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a teaspoon of orange zest to the brownie batter for a citrusy twist that pairs beautifully with the strawberries.
- If you prefer a thicker chocolate coating, double the amount of chocolate and cream for the ganache.
- These brownies are best enjoyed the same day but will stay fresh in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
