Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 box (15.25 ounces) strawberry cake mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Optional Ingredients
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir the mixture until a thick, sticky batter forms. If using, gently fold in the white chocolate chips and vanilla extract to incorporate evenly.
- Spread Batter: Pour and spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to smooth the surface.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 22 minutes. The edges should be set while the center remains slightly soft to retain that gooey texture. Avoid overbaking to prevent dryness.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan to set properly before cutting into squares. For an extra gooey experience, serve the brownies slightly warm.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, drizzle melted white chocolate or a cream cheese glaze over the cooled brownies.
- Store your brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days to maintain freshness.
