Ingredients
Scale
Brownies
- See the link to the brownie recipe above
Frosting
- 1/2 stick butter
- 1/2 cup cookie butter spread
- 3/4 cup icing sugar, sifted
- 1/2 to 1 tbsp milk or heavy cream
- around 50g chocolate, melted (1.7 ounces)
Instructions
- Bake the brownies using the linked recipe and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and cookie butter spread together until well combined and smooth.
- Gradually add the sifted icing sugar to the butter mixture, beating until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add milk or heavy cream, a little at a time, until the frosting reaches your desired consistency.
- Spread the frosting thickly over the cooled brownies.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the frosting and use a knife or skewer to swirl it into the frosting for a marbled effect.
- Allow the frosting to set slightly before cutting the brownies into squares and serving.
Notes
For best results, allow the brownies to cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting. Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can substitute milk with heavy cream for a richer frosting. Experiment with different types of chocolate for the drizzle to vary the flavor.
