INSTRUCTIONS

Red Velvet Brownies
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8x8 square baking pan with parchment paper. Leave parchment paper hanging over the sides of the pan so that you can easily remove the brownies from the pan later.
2. Melt the butter in the microwave or in a small pan over the stove. Transfer the melted butter to a medium sized bowl.
3. Add in both the sugars and use a whisk to whisk the butter and sugars together. Keep whisking until the mixture resembles a paste that pulls away cleanly from the side of the bowl when you mix it.
4. Add the eggs, vinegar, vanilla, and red food coloring and mix again. Color may vary depending on the brand of food coloring you use. You can add a little more if desired to make the brownies more red.
5. Pour the dry ingredients (cocoa powder, salt, and flour) into the bowl and mix with the whisk until just combined (it should only take about a minute).
6. Pour the batter into the lined baking pan using a spatula to scrape all the batter out of the bowl.
7. Bake for 30-40 minutes*. Begin checking the brownies at 30 minutes by inserting a toothpick in the middle. The top of the brownies should be crinkly and the toothpick should not come out clean (over-baking the brownies will make them hard and tough). The brownies are ready when the toothpick has a few wet crumbs, but not wet batter.
8. While the brownies cool, make the cream cheese frosting.

Cream Cheese Frosting
1. In a medium bowl or the bowl of a standing mixer, add the cream cheese, butter, salt, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and combined.
2. Add in powdered sugar slowly until the desired consistency is reach. If using dairy free cream cheese, add in the cornstarch (it is optional but helps to thicken the frosting).
3. Store the frosting in the fridge until ready to frost the brownies.
4. Let the brownies cool completely before adding the cream cheese frosting. Store the brownies in the fridge OR store the cream cheese frosting in the fridge and leave the brownies unfrosted until ready to serve.
