Once a Month Alarm Brownies

Once A Month Alarm Brownies


I didn't know what to call these. My hubby said "Death by Chocolate Brownies".
I wanted "3 Alarm Brownies", or "Milk Alarm Brownies" (so rich, you run for the milk!)

Basically these are THE brownies to make when that chocolate craving is just beyond what you can handle. Want to solve the serious sweet tooth ? Really solve that once a month need for chocolate before the lack there of sets you off kilter and in a "mood"? (haha!)
This is it. For serious chocolate lovers, like me. I'm not even going to try to doll up the pictures- because this is serious- serious biz here folks! :)


Once a Month Alarm Brownies

Pre heat oven to 350F degrees. Spray/ or grease a 8" square baking pan.

Brownies:
1/2 c softened real butter
2 eggs
1 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1/3 c unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 c flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp real salt
1/2 c chopped walnuts (** Optional)

Frosting
4 tbsp softened real butter
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp honey
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp milk

In a bowl,add 1/2 c softened butter, eggs and sugar. Mix on low speed until sugar dissolves. Add cocoa and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder and salt and mix on medium speed until smooth. **Add chopped walnuts and mix once more until well blended.  Will be thick.
Pour into prepped pan and bake in center of the oven for 25 -30 min. (until a butter knife inserted comes out clean.
In a bowl, mix  butter, powdered sugar, honey, milk, vanilla and  cocoa powder. Mix on low until powder dampens and then high speed until fluffed and smooth like frosting. Spread over brownies while they are still hot from oven. Let it melt across - and drizzle in.....ahhhhhhh enjoy warm with a glass of milk and dissolve away all sweet tooth or chocolate craving you have in a matter of seconds!
As i said- I'm not dolling up the pictures- these brownies speak for themselves. Make no mistake- these are for serious chocolate lovers!
