Ingredients:

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 4 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 6 tbsp milk
  • 3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions:

  1. Brownie: Preheat oven to 400°; grease an 11 x 17 jelly roll pan.
  2. Mix sugar and flour in a bowl; in a saucepan bring to boil the butter, shortening, water, cocoa and salt; pour cocoa mixture over flour mixture and stir until combined.
  3. Beat in buttermilk, baking soda, eggs and vanilla; pour into baking pan and bake for 15 minutes, until center is barely set; DO NOT OVERBAKE; the center of the brownie will be slightly puffed but, if not overbaked, will fall when cool.
  4. Frosting: Prepare the frosting while the brownie bakes; in same saucepan, bring to boil the butter, milk and cocoa; remove from heat and stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla; stir until smooth.
  5. Pour and spread over the brownie immediately after removing it from the oven; cool and refrigerate.
