Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
(This makes it easier to lift bars out of pan and cut.)
Mix cake mix, eggs, and oil with a mixer until combined. About 2 minutes.
Bake for 15-18 minutes but be careful not to overcook.
After brownies are cooled, hold the sides of the parchment paper and lift out of pan. (I cut the sides off of my bars)
In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, vanilla and milk until combined. Pour glaze over bars and spread to the edges.
Let the glaze set about 10 minutes and then cut into squares.

Don't over mix the batter. I recommend mixing until the ingredients are just combined.

This batter is thick. Don't worry about the consistency of the batter. It is going to be very thick.

Spray the baking dish and spatula. Don't forget line your baking dish with parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray. This will help make it easy to remove the strawberry brownies. I also spray my spatula to help spread out the dough in the dish.

Let cool. Make sure to let the bars completely cool before adding the glaze.

Chill to set the glaze. I like to put the glazed bars in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to help set the glaze.
