Ingredients

Scale
  • BATTER:

  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup cocoa

  • 1 tsp. vanilla (I added this ingredient. Just thought it tasted better.)

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in the microwave and put into mixing bowl.
  2. Add cocoa and mix until smooth.
  3. Add flour and sugar. Beat together and then add eggs, vanilla, and nuts, if desired. Mix until combined. Do not over stir.
  4. Spread evenly into greased and floured 9 x 13 baking pan (I used baking spray with flour and it worked fine).
  5. Bake 20-25 minutes at 350 F or until done. Check at about 20 minutes. Toothpick inserted into center should come out clean.
  6. Remove brownies from oven and wait only about 10 minutes to frost them. You want to frost while they are warm, not hot.;ICING–combine ingredients and spread on warm brownies.
