Recipe: Strawberry Brownie Torte

 Thursday night Kat had her end of the season golf dinner. She asked if we could make a yummy Strawberry Brownie Torte as a dessert to bring with us. This recipe was given to me by a friend of mine and we all love it. It was a huge hit with everyone and Kat took leftovers to a bonfire later that night and she came home with an empty plate.


I doubled the recipe and made two tortes. It is a perfect recipe to make when all those juicy strawberries are ready for the picking, and actually, it's so sweet and rich that if the berries are a little tart it balances it all out. It takes very few ingredients and doesn't take too long to make, and yet it looks so elegant!

 

Ingredients:
1 pkg. brownie mix
1 (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 c. cold water
1 (4oz) pkg. instant vanilla pudding
1 (4oz) cool whip
strawberries, hulled & sliced


Instructions:
1. Grease 2 9-inch round layer cake pans. Line with wax paper, extending up sides of pans; grease wax paper.

2. Prepare brownie mix as package directs for cake-like brownies; pour into prepared pans.

3. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until top springs back when touched. Cool.

4. In large bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk & water. Beat in pudding, mix and chill 5 min.

5. Fold in whipped topping.  Chill for a little while longer to allow filling to thicken a bit more.


6. Place 1 brownie layer on serving plate. Top with half each of the pudding mixture & strawberries. Repeat.

7. Refrigerate till ready to serve.
