Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 boxes of Pillsbury brownie mix ( just plain fudge brownie mix)

Frosting:
1 stick butter
6 TBSP milk
1 tsp. vanilla
4 TBSP dry cocoa
1 box (or 1/2 bag) confectioners sugar
chopped nuts (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
Follow directions on the box. Spray 8x14 sheet cake pan with Pam. They will take a little longer to bake because of the thickness but after about 40-minutes, stick with a knife in the center. It should come out gooey but not runny.

Frosting: in a saucepan over medium heat, melt 1-stick of butter, 6 TB of milk, and 1 tsp. of vanilla. As soon as it is melted, remove from heat. Add 4 TB of dry cocoa and 1-box or 1/2 bag of confectioners sugar. Use a hand mixer to get it blended well or a whisk. Pour over hot brownies. Chopped nuts are optional, but recommended - as much as you want - I use a lot.

When it cools some, cover with foil and let sit overnight on the counter. Don't cover warm or the condensation will cause the icing not to set. Enjoy ladies!!!
