Directions:
Base: Cream the butter, sugar and eggs, then beat in the flour and cocoa. Spread into a 11" x 17" cookie pan. Bake 350ºF for 12 minutes.
Filling: Put the butter, sugar, condensed milk and flour in the top of a double boiler and heat to a slow bubble. Pour the filling over the hot base and pop it back into the oven until it just barely bubbles, about 2 to 3 minutes. (Don't overbake).
Frosting: Put all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat very well with an electric mixer. Do not under beat. When the frosting is very smooth, pour it evenly over the filling. These bars freeze well.
