Make these fudgy strawberry brownies using a cake mix base for speed. They feature a sweet strawberry flavor and are topped with a simple chocolate drizzle for an indulgent treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) strawberry cake mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, melted butter, eggs, flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  3. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and the chopped fresh strawberries.
  4. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs attached. Do not overbake to keep the brownies fudgy.
  6. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  7. While the brownies cool, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  8. Once cooled, spread the strawberry glaze evenly over the top of the brownies. Let the glaze set for about 15 minutes.
  9. Melt the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the set glaze.
  10. Cut the brownies into squares and serve.

Notes

  • For a richer chocolate flavor, substitute 1/4 cup of the cake mix with unsweetened cocoa powder.
  • If you prefer a cheesecake swirl brownie, mix 4 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, then swirl into the batter before baking.
  • To achieve a very moist texture, check the brownies a few minutes before the suggested bake time.
