Equipment
- 1 Large Mixing Bowl
- 1 8x8" Baking Pan (9x9" works too)
- Parchment Paper or non-stick cooking spray
Ingredients
- 1 15.25 oz Betty Crocker Red Velvet Cake Mix (or other brand)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup melted coconut oil or vegetable oil
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8x8 (or 9x9") baking pan with parchment paper. Leave some parchment hanging over the edges of the pan to easily remove the brownies from the pan later.
- Add the red velvet cake mix, eggs, and oil to a large mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated. The batter will be very thick and will start to pull cleanly away from the edges of the bowl.1 15.25 oz Betty Crocker Red Velvet Cake Mix, 2 large eggs, ½ cup melted coconut oil

- Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread the thick batter into an even layer in the pan. If desired, gently press additional white chocolate chips into the top of the brownies before baking.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the pan comes out with moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake; the brownies will continue to bake while cooling in the pan.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before slicing them and serving. Enjoy!
Notes
Storage: Keep leftover red velvet brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for 5-7 days. To freeze, place them in an airtight container in the freezer with parchment paper between each layer of brownies. They store frozen for up to 3 months.
Gluten-Free Red Velvet Brownies: To make this recipe gluten-free, use a gluten-free red velvet cake mix instead.
Adding Cream Cheese Frosting: Make the brownies with cream cheese frosting if you want an even sweeter treat. Make sure the brownies are completely cool before adding the frosting.
Adding Oreos: You can mix crushed Oreo cookies into the brownie batter instead of using white chocolate chips.
