How to Make Buttermilk Brownies With Frosting
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10x1 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup water, and 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- Pour the hot chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients and beat with an electric mixer until just combined.
- Add 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Beat for 1 minute on medium speed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- While the brownies are baking, prepare the frosting:
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and 3 tablespoons buttermilk.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- Add 2 cups powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
- Once the brownies are slightly cooled, pour the warm frosting over the top and spread evenly.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.
