Strawberry Brownies
Course: Dessert Prep Time: 10 minutesCook Time: 20 minutesTotal Time: 30 minutes Servings: 15 brownies
Ingredients
1 box Strawberry cake mix
⅓ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
1 egg
4 ounces cream cheese
½ cup thinly sliced fresh strawberries
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper or foil and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer set to medium speed, combine the strawberry cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs and cream cheese until well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly with a spatula. Batter will be thick, so use your fingers if necessary.
Arrange the thinly sliced strawberries on top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until edges are starting to brown and center looks mostly set. Strawberries should be somewhat dried out.
Cool completely before slicing and serving.
