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
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch glass baking dish with parchment paper and spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine ½ cup melted butter, eggs, strawberry cake mix, and 2 tablespoons strawberry gelatin until the mixture is well blended and thick.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 25 minutes. Allow to cool completely once baked.
- In a bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until well combined. Gradually add powdered sugar and heavy cream, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
- Spread the cream cheese frosting over the cooled brownies evenly.
- Using a food processor, pulse the Golden Oreos until they are broken into pieces, leaving some larger chunks for texture.
- Sprinkle the remaining strawberry gelatin over the cookie crumbs, drizzle with melted butter, and pulse a few more times until combined.
- Sprinkle the cookie crumbles over the brownies and gently press them into the frosting.
- Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
Ensure the brownies are completely cooled before frosting to prevent melting.
Try adding fresh strawberries on top for a burst of flavor and color!
Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
