Description
These strawberry brownies are a fun and simple dessert made with a strawberry cake mix. They’re chewy, dense, and packed with sweet strawberry flavor, perfect for a quick and colorful treat.
Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1–2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream (for glaze)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a large bowl, mix together the strawberry cake mix, eggs, and oil until well combined. The batter will be thick.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan.
- To make the glaze, mix the powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon of milk or cream, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Drizzle glaze over the cooled brownies, let it set, then cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Do not overbake; brownies will firm up as they cool.
- Use heavy cream for a richer glaze.
- Add diced strawberries for extra fruit flavor, but note this may alter texture.
