FROSTING
1 cube butter

Melt butter, milk and cocoa on medium low heat until it starts to thicken (3 - 5 minutes). Add vanilla, powdered sugar and a pinch of salt.
ENJOY!!!
*D: These are so stinking delicious. The brownie is light, yet still has the density of brownie rather than cake. The frosting really tastes like a layer of fudge to me.
When making the brownies, I added all the ingredients into my mixer, melted the butter and cocoa on then stove, then added that to my mixer. I dirtied two pans, but I think the process was smoother that way.
A note on the frosting. When I added the 4 cups of powdered sugar, it was too thick to stir. I added a tsp of milk and tried again. I probably ended up adding 4 tsp of milk before the frosting turned smooth.
These are delicious and dangerous. Look at the recipe. It takes an entire pound of butter! Luckily it makes a TON. So instead of hoarding them, cut them up and share them. Your thighs, and your friends, will thank you. :)
