Here’s a fun and fudgy twist on a classic dessert — Strawberry Brownies 🍓
They’re soft, chewy, and packed with bright strawberry flavor.
🍓 Ingredients (Makes 9–12 squares)
For the brownies:
- 1 box strawberry cake mix (15.25 oz / 432 g)
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup white chocolate chips (optional but recommended)
For the glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tbsp strawberry puree (or milk)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat & Prepare
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease.
2️⃣ Make the Batter
- In a bowl, mix cake mix, eggs, and oil until thick and smooth.
- Fold in white chocolate chips if using.
- Spread evenly into prepared pan (batter will be thick).
3️⃣ Bake
- Bake for 18–22 minutes.
- Edges should be set but center slightly soft (don’t overbake for chewy texture).
- Cool completely before glazing.
4️⃣ Make the Glaze
- Whisk powdered sugar, strawberry puree (or milk), and vanilla until smooth.
- Drizzle over cooled brownies.
- Let glaze set before slicing.
🍓 From-Scratch Version (No Cake Mix)
If you prefer homemade:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour

- ½ cup sugar
- 1 egg

- Pinch of salt
Bake at 350°F for 20–25 minutes.
💡 Tips
- For stronger strawberry flavor, add 1 tbsp strawberry gelatin powder.
- Add chopped fresh strawberries on top before serving.
- For a prettier finish, drizzle melted white chocolate over the glaze.
- Store in an airtight container up to 3 days.
