FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
We used a strawberry extract to compliment the strawberry flavoring but you can swap this out for some other one that will compliment the flavors as well. Try a lemon extract, raspberry extract, or even an orange extract.
Certainly, try adding a handful of baking chips, maybe some white chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter to add a little chocolate flavor to the brownies.
Certainly! If you double this brownie recipe, I recommend using a 9x13-inch baking dish rather than the 8x8-inch dish we normally used and you'll need to adjust the baking time accordingly.
Yes but obviously this will give you a completely different flavor. You could use white or vanilla cake mix along with the other strawberry flavors. Or maybe even a chocolate cake mix for a chocolate covered strawberry vibe.
Leftover Strawberry Brownies should be stored in an airtight container and can be kept for up to 3 days.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)
- strawberry cake mix
- large eggs
- salted butter
- strawberry extract

HOW TO MAKE STRAWBERRY BROWNIES
Preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray then line the bottom with parchment paper, making sure it comes up at least two of the sides, and set aside (this will help with removing the brownies later.)
In a large mixing bowl, mix the cake mix, eggs, melted butter, and strawberry extract until combined. The batter will be very thick.
Press the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the brownies are completely cool, prepare the glaze by adding the powdered sugar, preserves, and milk into a small bowl and whisk until combined. Pour over top the brownies and smooth evenly.
Cut into 9 large or 12 small pieces and serve!
