When cooled, whisk together powdered sugar, jam, cream cheese, and milk until icing forms. Pour glaze on top of the brownies and slice to serve. For best results, make sure brownies are completely cooled before icing.

Tips and Variations: 

  • You can substitute out the strawberry jam with strawberry puree if you’d like. This is always best if you have fresh strawberries on hand.
  • Top this strawberry dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or strawberry ice cream.
  • If you don’t want to make the glaze, you can also top with strawberry frosting. 
  • Mix in white chocolate chips.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container. 

This easy dessert has lots of strawberry flavor. If you’d like to add more, you can throw in a few dashes of strawberry extract to enhance the simple ingredients.
