Ingredients
1package of brownie mix & all ingredients you need for it
1 ½cupsheavy whipping cream
1teaspoonvanilla extract
2tablespoonpowdered sugar
1 cupstrawberries, some sliced some whole with tops still on
1cupblueberries
½cupblackberries
¼cupraspberries
Instructions
Preheat oven to what your brownie mix recommends. Grease and line 9" round cake pan with parchment paper. Make brownie mix according to package directions and pour into cake pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or when brownies are clean when toothpick is inserted into them. Let brownie cool for about 10 minutes before running your knife around the edges and carefully taking brownie out of cake pan to cool on cooling rack. Let sit for at least another 20 minutes, preferably about an hour.
Meanwhile, make your whipped cream by placing heavy cream in stand mixer with whisk attachment. Whisk until cream just begins to thicken. Then slowly add vanilla and powdered sugar. Continue whipping until cream forms stiff peaks. (Be careful not to over beat cream...you don't want it to turn into butter!)
Add large dollops of whipped cream in the center of cooled brownie and spread around with spoon until cream is close to the edge of the cake. Add fresh berries on top, alternating berries in 2 or 3 rounds, then slice just like a pizza! Enjoy!
Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container OR place toothpicks all around the cake and cover with plastic wrap. Make ahead: This cake is great to make ahead. You can either assemble to the brownie cake and place in the refrigerator the night before you are going to eat it, or keep the cake separate from the whipped cream and fresh berries and assemble just before eating. Either way, it's delicious.
