Delightful strawberry brownies that combine the ease of a box mix with the freshness of real strawberries, topped with a luscious cream cheese frosting.

Ingredients

Scale

  7. Add powdered sugar, salt, and milk to the cream cheese mixture and whisk until smooth.
  8. Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies with a rubber spatula.
