Strawberry brownies made from cake mix are a fun & colorful dessert that is so simple to make. Just 3 ingredients for chewy pink brownies. A great recipe for Easter, Spring, pink-themed parties, birthdays, showers, & Mother's Day.
In a medium bowl whisk together the 2 eggs and the vegetable oil.
To the wet ingredients add the cake mix & stir using a wooden spoon or spatula spoon.
Prepare an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper. Use binder clips to hold it in place.
The batter will be THICK! Spoon the brownie batter into the prepared pan. Spread it out so it is even and will bake properly. REMOVE binder clips if you used them.
Bake in the 350° oven for 22-25 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Once cool, lift the brownies out by grasping the parchment paper. Place on a cutting board & let cool for an additional 15 minutes.
Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the brownies into 9 equal-sized squares.
Enjoy! Any leftovers can be stored in an air-tight container for up to 5 days.
Notes
This recipe was updated in April 2025 for better fudgy results. Fewer minutes cooling in the pan helps them not continue to cook/dry out making them even better & more improved!
