Preheat the oven to 165 degrees. Line or grease a 24 cm cake tin with baking paper.
Make the [Linkhttp://recipeyum.com.au/date-night-chocolate-strawberries/49269/ chocolate dipped strawberries] and refrigerate to set until ready to serve. Small to medium sized strawberries are best, I used large as that is all that was available.
Beat the eggs and brown sugar until the mixture doubles in size.
Stir the butter, vanilla essence and cocoa in a saucepan on low heat, about 1 minute.
