  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    For the Strawberry Glaze:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • 1 cup powdered sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 2\u20133 tablespoons strawberry puree or milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n

      Step-by-Step: How to Make Strawberry Brownies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      1. Preheat & Prep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Line an 8×8 or 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper for easy removal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Mix the Batter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In a bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla. The batter will be thick\u2014don\u2019t worry, that\u2019s what makes them fudgy. Stir in any optional mix-ins if using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. Bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Spread the batter evenly in your prepared pan. Bake for 18\u201322 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Let them cool completely before glazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Glaze It Up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Whisk powdered sugar, strawberry puree or milk, vanilla, and food coloring until smooth. Drizzle or spread over the cooled brownies. Let the glaze set before slicing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Tips for Strawberry Bliss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Use strawberry puree in the glaze<\/strong> for max flavor and a natural pink hue.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Add freeze-dried strawberries<\/strong> for little pops of tart fruit flavor in the batter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Want extra moisture?<\/strong> Add 2 tablespoons of sour cream to the batter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Cut with a plastic knife<\/strong> for clean, neat slices without sticking!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
