HOW TO MAKE RED VELVET BROWNIES WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIPS: STEP BY STEP
Here are some quick visual instructions. Remember that full instructions with exact ingredients will be in the recipe card below!
Step 1: Stir together brownie mix, eggs and vegetable oil. Batter will be very thick!
Step 2: Spread batter evenly into an 8×8 baking pan.
Step 3: Sprinkle on white chocolate chips.
Step 4: Bake at 350°F for 18-22 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or ALMOST clean.
RECIPE TIPS & TRICKS
- Try to avoid overcooking your brownies. If they cook too long, they get dry and more “cake like” vs. chewy, like other brownies. Begin checking them at around the 15-18 minute mark. When a toothpick comes out ALMOST clean, take them out. They will continue to cook when they come out of the oven.
- To spread brownies into the pan, just pour the brownie mix into the middle of your 8×8 pan. Then take a rubber spatula (or butter knife) sprayed with cooking spray and gently spread the batter into an even layer.
- To cut brownies, use a PLASTIC KNIFE! Yep! That’s right! A plastic knife cuts your brownies into nice, clean squares.
STORAGE
- Storage: Store brownies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Freezing: These brownies can be frozen! Cool completely, then transfer to a zip top freezer bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, place on the counter for a few hours or overnight.
ADDITIONS AND SUBSTITUTIONS
- A cream cheese frosting like this one is also AMAZING to top these brownies with instead of the white chocolate chips.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
These brownies are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out ALMOST clean. Resist the urge to over bake them, as over baking leads to more cake-like brownies. Begin checking them at about the 15-20 minute mark.
Substituting butter for the oil will yield more cake-like brownies vs. the chewy, moist brownies you are looking for! Oil is great for keeping these brownies nice and moist.

- 2 eggs

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper or spray it with cooking spray (such as Pam).

- Bake for 18-22 minutes until a toothpick comes out almost clean. It's OK to under bake slightly, the brownies will continue to cook when they come out of the oven. Begin checking the brownies at about the 15-18 minute mark to ensure you don't over bake them.
