Fudge Iced Brownies Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter and cocoa powder the bottom and sides of a 8×8 inch baking pan.

In a large bowl whisk the melted butter and sugar until sugar is dissolved and the butter mixture has cooled (about a minute) then add in the vanilla and eggs.

Sift together the flour, baking soda, cocoa, and salt and add to the large wet mixture, whisking until just combined.

Pour into the baking pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes.

While the brownies are baking, add the milk, butter, sugar and salt to a medium pot on medium heat and bring to a boil for 30 seconds.

Remove from the heat and whisk in the chocolate until smooth then add in the vanilla whisking again and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before pouring over the brownies and smoothing with a spatula.
