The Story:
The summer brings a lot of potlucks. And at the end of every potluck table there is the assortment of brownies, right? (Well right next to the over-achiever’s gourmet dessert) But the only options for brownies are cakey, fudgey, nutty and burned. Here’s another option that is sure to be the first dessert to disappear at the next neighborhood potluck.
Cake Batter Brownies
Servings 20 -24 brownies
Ingredients
Brownie Layer:
- 1 box brownie mix I like Betty Crocker
- 2 eggs
- 2/3 C. oil
- 1/4 C. milk
Cake Batter Swirl:
- 1 2/3 C. yellow or while cake mix approx. 1/2 a box of cake mix
- 1 egg
- 2 Tbsp. oil
- 1/4 C. milk
- 2 Tbsp. sprinkles
3 Tbsp. extra Sprinkles
Instructions
-
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9 X 13 inch pan with foil and leave some hanging over the sides to help remove brownies later (see photo) and grease the exposed glass not covered in foil.
-
2. Brownies: Combine all ingredients and pour into prepared pan. Spread our evenly.
-
3. Cake Batter Swirl: Combine all ingredients until smooth.
-
4. Take spoonfuls of batter and drop it onto the brownie layer (see photo). Continue until batter is all used.
-
5. Use a knife to cut through the batter in the brownie mix to make a swirl or marbleized pattern.
-
6. Pour the remaining sprinkles over the brownies for decoration.
-
7. Bake for 28-35 minutes depending on how gooey or cakey you want your brownies to be. Put on a lower rack of your oven and check half way through, if the cake part on top looks done, cover with foil so that the cake doesn't get too brown
-
8. Let cool in pan, then lift up on foil to remove from pan, cut with a warm knife.
Wondering what to do with the extra cake mix, well you can make 12 cupcakes OR you can make some amazing Cake Batter Frosting!

Looks fun & yummy!
Sounds good to me. Betty Crocker is my favorite brownie mix too. BTW- made your cookie dough brownies but with patriotic m&m’s instead of chocolate chips – they were awesome!!! Thank you!
Thanks a lot! Now you just made the ‘what should I bake for the 4th” dilemma even harder!!! 😀
Looks great! I have brownie mixes for 8×8/9×9 pans. I think I’ll do these for a potluck next week. Do you think the cake batter part of this would make enough to do 2 of these?
Thanks!
You can alwaysjust use the whole box of cake mix (the recipe only calls for half a box of yellow mix) to make for both the pans!
These look delicious!!!

Looks yummy. I would be using gluten-free products!
so upset…I made these today and they were not cooked enough at all….I just greased my baking dish instead of using foil….is that why they didn’t cook? the brownies were mush…=(
I am so sorry! As always with anything you bake, stick a knife into the middle and pull it out, if it still comes out with gooey dough on it, then bake it longer!
Made these because they looked so yummy! Everything went well and followed directions except brownies were liquid when i took them out. Cake was almost burned on top yet brownies were basically still batter 🙁 had to toss it
I made these last night. I didn’t add the oil to the brownies and I covered the cake after about 30 minutes with aluminum foil and let the brownies finish cooking (like the recipe said to) and they turned out great!
