Brownie Cake Recipe

Start the recipe by adding the boxed cake mix to a large bowl.

Next, add the boxed brownie mix to the bowl.

Pour the vegetable oil into the bowl.

Now, pour the water into the bowl.

Add the eggs to the bowl.

Mix the ingredients with an electric mixer or a stand mixer.

I’ve said it before, but the great thing about this cake is that it is so easy to make.

Pour the cake into a greased bundt cake pan and bake for 55 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.

TIP: To get out the air bubbles, take a knife and gently run it through the batter.

When the brownie cake is done baking, allow it to cool for at least 20 minutes.

The cake will pull away from the sides as it bakes, making it a little easier to get out of the pan.

I always take a knife and slide it down the sides and in the center of the pan to make sure it’s not sticking to the sides.

I then place a cake stand or a plate over the top and flip it over. It should come out easily.

I used a bundt pan for this recipe because I like the way they look after they bake, but you can also use a tube pan.

Now, you can get started on your icing.

Homemade Chocolate Icing

Start by adding the powdered sugar and the unsweetened cocoa to a medium-sized bowl.

Next, pour the vanilla extract into the bowl.

Followed by the melted butter.

And finish with the warm water. Then mix everything together and pour it on the cake.

TIP: Start off with two tablespoons of warm water. If the icing is too thick, add another tablespoon of water and mix.

Pour the icing on the top and sides of the cake.

The icing covers quite a bit of the cake, but if you’d like to completely cover it, you can double the recipe.

How Do I Store The Cake?

If you have any leftover cake, you can store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

If you cover the cake with plastic wrap, just make sure you don’t place it on the frosting or the plastic wrap will peel it off when you remove it.
