This gorgeous dessert is perfect for a summer party. You could use sliced strawberries for the red stripes, but I think raspberries are perfect.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 (8"x 8" size) packages brownie mix
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 (16-ounce) can cream cheese frosting
  • 1 (16-ounce) can white frosting
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 3 cups raspberries

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9x13" pan with nonstick cooking spray containing flour. In large bowl, combine brownie mixes, water, vegetable oil, and eggs; beat for 50 strokes.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until brownies are just set; do not overbake. Cool completely on wire rack.

Frost brownies with both cans of frosting, using the cream cheese frosting first, then the white frosting; smooth top. Using blueberries, make the 'stars' in the upper left hand corner of the brownies. Using raspberries, make the 'stripes'. Cut into squares to serve. Serves 16-20
