Lunch Lady Brownies

Oh man, these were good!  This is a really good recipe and surprisingly easy.  I will be making these again and again.

 Lunch Lady Brownies

1 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup cocoa

2 cups flour

2 cups sugar

4 eggs

1 Tablespoon vanilla

Frosting

1/4 cup butter, soft

1/4 cup milk

1/4 cup cocoa

3 cups powdered sugar

1/4 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350.  Spray a 9x13, then put in parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine the butter, cocoa and sugar with a wooden or sturdy spoon.  Mix in the flour well.  Slightly beat the eggs and add them with the vanilla.  Mix until combined and spread the batter into the prepared pan.  Make sure you spread it into the corners.

Bake for 22-25 minutes or until toothpick in center comes out clean.  Frost the brownies while warm

For frosting, put the butter in a bowl and beat with electric mixer until fluffy.  Add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk.  Mix until creamy and fluffy.  Spread over the warm brownies.

I recently made a double batch for a family reunion.  They were a hit!
