How to Make Chocolate Butter Cream Bars
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- For the frosting: In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder, beating until smooth and creamy.
- Add the milk and vanilla, and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.
- Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled bars.
- Refrigerate for at least 2.5 hours to allow the frosting to set before cutting and serving.
