Ingredients

Scale

Strawberry Brownies:

  • 1 box strawberry cake mix
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips

Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 8 ounces softened cream cheese
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Make the Brownie Batter: In a large bowl, mix strawberry cake mix, oil, 1 whole egg, 1 egg yolk, and vanilla extract with a mixer on medium to medium-high speed until a thick dough forms.
  3. Add the White Chocolate Chips: Stir in the white chocolate chips. They don’t really want to stick to the dough, so do the best you can.
  4. Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar, one egg white, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  5. Assemble the Brownies: Pat ½ of the strawberry brownie mixture into the bottom of the pan. Dollop the cream cheese over the strawberry layer. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining strawberry brownie mixture between the cream cheese blobs, covering the entire bottom layer.
  6. Bake: Bake for 28-32 minutes or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  7. Cool: Cool on a baking rack for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least an hour to cool completely.
