A Perfect Feast

Skillet Brownies with Strawberries and Cream are a great quick and easy dessert. The brownies are dark and delicious. And, the whipped cream and strawberries add such a nice fresh fruity element to the dish. Also, everyone loves getting there own individual little skillet of brownie. I love this dessert for several reasons. First of all, it uses mostly ingredients I always have in the house. Secondly, the whole dessert only takes about thirty minutes. And, lastly, everyone in my family loves these brownies.

The Equipment I Used

• A Food Scale- For perfect baking results every time, please weigh you flour and sugar.
• An Electric Mixer- Use this to whip your cream.
• Mini Cast Iron Skillets- I bake these brownies in six four inch mini cast iron skillets. But, you could also bake the brownies in a 13×9 baking dish lined with parchment paper.

The Ingredients Needed for Skillet Brownies with Strawberries and Cream

• Bittersweet Chocolate- I usually use Ghiradelli brand chocolate. Just make sure it’s bittersweet.
• Butter- Use unsalted butter.
• Eggs- Make sure your eggs are at room temperature.
• Flour- Use all purpose flour.
• Cream- Heavy cream is the cream used for whipping,

How I Made my Brownies

• First, I let my eggs sit out on the counter for about thirty minutes.
• Next, I melted the chocolate and butter together on very low heat.
• Then, I carefully weighed my flour and sugar.
• Next, I stirred in the eggs and stirred until they were completely combined.
• Then, I stirred in the sugar and vanilla, and again stirred until the mixture was well combined.
• Next, I folded in the flour. But, just until no streaks of flour remained.
• Then, I baked my brownies, just until a toothpick came out clean.
• Finally, I whipped my cream and added it to the brownies along with the strawberries.

These Skillet Brownies with Strawberries and Cream were the perfect dessert to serve today. Since, we were celebrating the first day of spring!
