A neighbor brought over a pan of these rich fudge brownies along with the recipe when I came home from the hospital with our baby daughter. I asked her how to make brownie frosting like that, and I've made them ever since for family occasions, potlucks and parties at work. -Sue Soderlund, Elgin, Illinois

Tips for Making the Perfect Frosting for Brownies:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This means using real butter, cream cheese, and chocolate. Avoid using margarine, shortening, or vegetable oil.
- Make sure the frosting is the right consistency. It should be thick enough to spread easily, but not so thick that it's difficult to smooth out. If the frosting is too thin, it will run off the brownies. If it's too thick, it will be difficult to spread and may end up lumpy.
- Don't overbeat the frosting. Overbeating can cause the frosting to become grainy and stiff. Beat the frosting just until it is smooth and creamy.
- Let the frosting cool slightly before spreading it on the brownies. This will help prevent the frosting from melting and running off the brownies.
- Be creative with your frosting. There are endless possibilities for frosting flavors and decorations. Try adding different extracts, spices, or chopped nuts to your frosting. You can also use different colors of frosting to create a fun and festive look.
Conclusion:
With these tips in mind, you're sure to create a delicious and beautiful frosting for your brownies. So get creative and have fun!
