Red Velvet Brownies
I’ll admit it. I had never heard of red velvet brownies, but once I got the idea of combining two of my favorite desserts, I was determined. I made this recipe multiple times until it was just right, as we are very picky about our brownies around here. For my family, the ideal brownie needs to be rich and delicious, not too cakey, and not too gooey. I’m happy to report that these red velvet brownies meet all of the above qualifications, plus they are beautiful to look at! It’s the perfect dessert to make for the people you love on Valentine’s Day or any other time you need a pick me up!
What Makes The Red Velvet Brownies So Good?
These red velvet brownies have a lot going for them. They have that rich red velvet flavor that’s enhanced by bits of mini chocolate chips that are mixed in. Plus, they are topped with a creamy, rich cream cheese frosting. It’s out of this world and super easy to make, too. On top of it all, there’s a delicious vanilla raspberry sauce drizzled over the top, along with even more tiny chocolate chips sprinkled on top. In my opinion, the raspberry sauce is what really sets this recipe over the top, it is seriously amazing!
Sour Cream Cake
There’s one other ingredient in these red velvet brownies that you may not be expecting: sour cream. It may seem like a weird addition but it gives these brownies the perfect texture and taste. This recipe only calls for 1/4th cup of sour cream to be added to the cake mix, but it truly makes a difference. Try it and see!
More Topping Ideas
You can change this recipe up when it comes to toppings. These red velvet brownies work well with many flavors. If you want to skip the frosting, you can serve them plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or even topped with ice cream.
