Description

Deliciously sweet and fruity strawberry brownies made from a strawberry cake mix, baked to a chewy perfection and topped with a smooth vanilla glaze. These brownies combine the classic fudgy texture with a fresh strawberry twist, perfect for dessert or a sweet snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Brownies

  • 1 box strawberry cake mix (approx. 15.25 oz)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brownies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, large eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and evenly mixed.
  2. Spread Batter: Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking. Pour the batter into the pan and spread it evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
  3. Bake: Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness by seeing if the edges slightly pull away from the pan. Avoid overbaking to maintain a chewy brownie texture.
  4. Make the Glaze: While the brownies are baking or cooling, whisk together the powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon of milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Adjust milk quantity (1-2 tablespoons) to achieve a smooth, drizzle-able consistency.
  5. Glaze the Brownies: Once the brownies have cooled completely, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top using a spoon or piping bag. Allow the glaze to set before cutting the brownies into 12 squares.

Notes

  • Do not overbake the brownies; this ensures they remain moist and chewy.
  • You can adjust the glaze thickness by adding more or less milk.
  • Make sure brownies are fully cooled before glazing to prevent melting.
  • For an extra strawberry punch, consider adding fresh sliced strawberries on top after glazing.
