Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 g unsalted butter
- 150 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 g granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 95 g all-purpose flour
- 30 g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 400 g fresh strawberries
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 50 g granulated sugar (for strawberry sauce)
- 1 L vanilla ice cream
- 250 ml whipped cream
- 50 g chopped nuts (optional)
- 50 ml chocolate syrup (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring each time, until melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.
Whisk the granulated sugar into the melted chocolate mixture. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients. Fold gently until just combined.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let it cool completely in the pan before cutting into 1-inch cubes.
For the strawberry sauce, combine the fresh strawberries, lemon juice, and granulated sugar in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries break down and the sauce thickens (about 10 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.
To assemble the sundaes, place a few brownie cubes at the bottom of each serving bowl. Top with 2-3 scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Drizzle the strawberry sauce generously over the ice cream and add whipped cream on top.
Optional: Sprinkle chopped nuts over the whipped cream and drizzle with chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
