Ingredients

1 box brownie mix + ingredients on back of box
1 box red velvet cake mix just the powder
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 egg
¼ cup milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper or grease very well with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl, prepare brownie mix according to manufacturer's instructions using ingredients on back of box. Spread into the bottom of prepared pan in an even layer.
In another large bowl, combine red velvet cake mix, vegetable oil, egg and milk and mix until completely incorporated and smooth. Spoon onto brownie layer randomly and swirl very gently with a butter knife in different directions. I like to zig zag side to side then up and down.
Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out almost clean with a small amount of batter on it. This will ensure that your brownies will be fudgy. Allow brownies to cool completely before cutting into them.
