Strawberry Brownies

         This recipe right here, this is the one! This recipe for Strawberry Brownies is easy to make and will look perfectly lovely sitting on a plate at a buffet or party. The flavor of strawberry comes through perfectly! I have actually made a pan of these so that they were not thick, but then used them for a strawberry shortcake dessert. These are so good when served with homemade vanilla ice cream, heavy whipping cream or even a strawberry sauce.

            This recipe may even remind you of a dump cake of sorts. We will add different ingredients to the cake mix for a fabulous dessert. Easy, delicious and gorgeous. Who can ask for more?

When I first saw the recipe, it was in the process of going viral. Of course, I had to be me and make a couple slight changes.  I have made these using different flavors and highly recommend them!

Remember you can top these with virtually anything you want, or leave them just glazed and enjoy them that way. In my opinion, they are perfect no matter how they are eaten.
