Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray an 8x8 pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Using a small blender or food processor, grind the strawberries until they are almost powder-like. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and 1 cup of chocolate chips together, 30 seconds at a time until melted. Add in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
Step 4
Add in the freeze-dried strawberries, flour, cocoa, and salt. Mix until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 28-30 minutes. Let cool.
Ganache
Step 5
Add the remaining cup of chocolate chips to a heat-safe bowl. Heat the cream over the stovetop on low until the edges start to simmer. Do NOT bring to a boil! Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. When the brownies are cool, spread the ganache over. Chill for 10 minutes in the fridge and garnish with more freeze-dried strawberries. Enjoy!
