Strawberry Brownies (From Cake Mix!) with Chocolate Brownie Frosting

strawberry cake mix

eggs

unsalted butter (melted (or flavorless oil))

unsalted butter (softened)

cocoa powder

corn syrup (or honey)

vanilla extract

sugar

heavy cream

salt

For The Strawberry Brownies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Set out a 9X13 inch baking dish. Then line it with parchment paper or foil. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mixes, eggs, and melted butter. Stir until smooth.

Scoop the thick batter into the prepared pan. Spread it out in an even layer. Then  bake for 15-17 minutes. You want the edges to be set and the center to be just baked through, so the texture is fudgy.

For The Brownie Frosting: Allow the strawberry brownies to cool as you make the frosting. In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened butter and cocoa powder together until very smooth.

Scrape the bowl and beat in the corn syrup and vanilla extract. Then turn the mixer on low and beat in the powdered sugar and a pinch of salt.

Add one tablespoon of heavy cream at a time until the brownie frosting is smooth and spreadable.

Slather the frosting over the warm brownies and let them cool to room temperature.

Then lift the entire sheet of brownies out of the pan by the edges of the parchment paper. Cut and serve.

Absolutely delicious and easy!  Thank you!

Very tasty and easy! I increased the amount by half - so 3/4 cup butter, 3 cups sugar, 4.5T milk, 1/2 cup chocolate. It was the perfect amount for 9x13 pan of brownies. The frosting crusts over nicely, which is my preferred texture on frosted brownies. 

Wow, this brownie frosting is absolutely amazing - saving it for future use! It was enough to cover my 9.5 x 9.5 pan of brownies. Thank you!

Great frosting recipe for brownies! I have a great brownie recipe that I love and this frosting was so easy and definitely adds to an already really good brownie recipe. Love it! Thanks so much!

Not a review, but a question. I need to frost some brownies the day before serving them. If I use this frosting, will I need to refrigerate since recipe includes milk? I added a 5 star review, so I wouldn't lower the average.

Awesome recipe. I made mine with creamed strong coffee and I frosted peanut butter cookies. They were soooo rich and fudgy.

If I could give this 10 stars I would!  This truly is a five minute recipe, from gathering the supplies to making this delicious frosting. I have even used it on a yellow cake recipe and everyone loved it, I just doubled the recipe.  

Thank you so much for sharing this!
