Instructions
Brownies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a baking pan.
- Combine butter, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and baking soda into a large bowl.
- In a microwave, melt 1 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips. Cook at 30-50 seconds at a time and stir, then repeat until totally melted.
- Stir in melted chocolate chips
- Add remaining 1 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to batter
- Bake 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven to cool before frosting brownies.
Frosting
- Place the butter in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or use an electric hand mixer). Beat on medium-high speed for about 2-3 minutes until creamy.
- Slowly add the powdered sugar in small batches along with the pinch of salt until mixed well.
- Pour in the vanilla extract and milk and whip on medium-high speed for 3-4 minutes until the frosting is silky, smooth, and easily clings to a spoon.
Decorate Brownies
- With a bent spatula or flat knife, add a thick layer of frosting over the cooled brownies.
- Coat the entire top of frosting with sprinkles. Place a paper towel or wax paper over the sprinkles and gently press down. Add more sprinkles to entirely coat the top.
- Place brownie pan in freezer for 20-30 minutes before cutting to ensure you get a clean cut.
