Instructions

For the Brownies:

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 9x13-inch baking dish or line with parchment paper.

In saucepan set over low heat, melt butter and chocolate. Stir until smooth. Remove from heat and add sugar and salt. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each. Stir in vanilla extract. Add flour and stir until just combined.

Step 3

Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake until edges are set, about 30-35 minutes. Let cool completely.

For the Trifles:

Step 4

Toss the blueberries, raspberries and strawberries with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Step 5

In large bowl, beat heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer to soft peaks. Add vanilla and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and continue beating to medium peaks.
