Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Batter

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. Melt the butter and cocoa powder together, stirring until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until fluffy.
4. Add the melted chocolate mixture and mix until combined.
5. Slowly fold in flour, baking powder, and salt until just incorporated.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Step 2: Bake the Brownies

1. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
2. Let the brownies cool completely before adding the next layer.

Step 3: Add the Strawberry Layer

1. Wash, dry, and slice the fresh strawberries evenly.
2. Arrange them in a single layer over the cooled brownies.

Step 4: Make the Ganache

1. Heat heavy cream until just simmering.
2. Pour over the chopped chocolate, let sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
3. Spread evenly over the strawberries, ensuring full coverage.

Step 5: Coat with Chocolate

1. Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in 15-second bursts.
2. Once the ganache has set, cut the brownies into squares.
3. Dip each brownie into the melted chocolate, ensuring even coverage.
4. Place on a wire rack or parchment paper and allow the chocolate to set completely.
