Ingredients
1 9×13 pan of cocoa brownies (homemade or from a box mix)
1/4 cup finely chopped strawberries
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
3 to 4 cups powdered sugar
1–2 drops red food coloring (optional)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon corn syrup or honey
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1-2 tablespoons milk or cream
Instructions
Prepare the brownies according to your favorite recipe or the instructions on the box. Remember to let them cool completely before frosting.
While those delightful brownies are cooling, let’s whip up the frosting! In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until fluffy and light. Add in the finely chopped strawberries and about 3 cups of powdered sugar. Mix carefully until well combined. If you need more sweetness, feel free to add additional powdered sugar until you achieve a pleasing spreadable consistency.
Now, it’s time to spread that luscious strawberry frosting over the cooled brownies. Be generous—it’s a treat after all!
To create a rich fudge drizzle, mix together the melted butter, cocoa powder, corn syrup or honey, powdered sugar, and milk or cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir until the mixture is smooth. Heat it in the microwave for about 20 seconds, and give it another stir.
Now drizzle this warm fudge glaze over the frosted brownies, allowing the glaze to set just a little.
Lastly, when everything is set, cut those scrumptious brownies into squares and serve them up. Enjoy every bite!
