- Total Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
For the Strawberry Brownies:
- 15.25-ounce box strawberry cake mix
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
For the Strawberry Glaze:
- ⅔ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons strawberry jam
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream (or milk)
- Pinch of fine sea salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the Brownie Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Stir until everything is well combined; the mixture will be thick.
- Press the batter into the prepared baking dish using the palm of your hands.
2. Bake the Brownies
- Bake the brownies for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let the brownies cool in the pan.
3. Make the Strawberry Glaze
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, strawberry jam, heavy cream, and a pinch of fine sea salt until smooth.
- If the glaze is too thick, add a little more cream (or milk) to thin it out, aiming for a consistency similar to glue.
4. Glaze the Brownies
- Once the brownies have cooled, spread the strawberry glaze evenly over the top.
- Slice the brownies into 16 bars.
Notes
- Variation:For an extra touch of sweetness and creaminess, you can mix in ½ cup of white chocolate chips into the brownie batter.
- Less Sweet Option:If you prefer less sweetness, feel free to skip the glaze and enjoy the brownies as they are.
- Storage:Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the brownies for up to 3 months. To thaw, place them in the fridge overnight or leave at room temperature.
