Ingredients
Scale
Brownies:
- 1 box Moist Red Velvet Cake Mix
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/3 cup water
Frosting:
- Whipped Fluffy White Frosting
Instructions
- Prepare the Red Velvet Brownie Batter: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal. In a large bowl, combine the red velvet cake mix, egg, vegetable oil, and water. Stir until the batter is smooth and well-mixed.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, spreading it with a spatula to create an even layer.
- Bake the Brownies: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before removing.
- Cut Out the Hearts: Once cooled, carefully lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment paper. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut as many hearts as possible from the brownies. Set aside the scraps for snacking or another use.
- Assemble the Brownie Sandwiches: Turn half of the heart-shaped brownies upside down. Pipe a generous layer of whipped fluffy white frosting onto the flat side of each turned-over heart. Gently place another heart-shaped brownie on top of the frosting to form a sandwich, with the decorative side facing outward.
- Serve & Enjoy: Arrange the brownie hearts on a serving platter and enjoy this sweet, festive treat!
Notes
- If you want to decorate the sandwiches further, you can add sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, or even a drizzle of melted chocolate for extra flair.
- You can store these brownie hearts in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
