Description

Delicious and indulgent Strawberry Shortcake Brownies topped with creamy frosting and crunchy cookie crumbles.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 strawberry cake mix
  • ½ cup salted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry gelatin
  • 8 ounce block cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup salted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 20 Golden Oreos, about ½ standard package
  • 4 tablespoons strawberry gelatin, the remaining amount
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch glass baking dish with parchment paper, spray with non-stick cooking spray, and set aside.
  2. Mix together ½ cup melted butter, eggs, strawberry cake mix, and 2 tablespoons strawberry gelatin in a medium mixing bowl until well combined (batter will be thick).
  3. Use a rubber spatula to spread the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes. Cool completely.
  4. Beat together cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until combined. Add powdered sugar and heavy cream and beat until smooth and fluffy.
  5. Spread cream cheese frosting over the cooled brownies.
  6. In the bowl of a food processor, pulse Golden Oreos until they are broken into pieces, making sure there are several larger chunks remaining.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining strawberry gelatin over the cookie crumbs and drizzle with melted butter. Pulse in the food processor a few more times until combined.
  8. Sprinkle cookie crumbles over the strawberry brownies and press down into the frosting.
  9. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Make sure the brownies are completely cooled before frosting.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
