Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Brownie Batter: In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the melted butter and cocoa powder. Using the paddle attachment, blend until smooth. Add the flour and sugar, mixing until combined. Then, add the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix just until incorporated. The batter will be thick.
  3. Bake the Brownies: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the brownies stand for 15 minutes after removing them from the oven, but frost them while they are still warm.
  4. Make the Chocolate Frosting: While the brownies are baking, prepare the frosting. Beat together the softened butter, milk, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar until smooth. If the frosting is too thick, add a little more milk until you reach the desired consistency.
  5. Frost the Brownies: Once the brownies have cooled slightly but are still warm, spread the frosting evenly over the top. The warmth from the brownies will help the frosting to melt slightly, creating a glossy, smooth finish.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting them into squares. Serve and enjoy!

Lunch Lady Brownies are the perfect dessert for chocolate lovers who crave a rich, fudgy treat. With their deep chocolate flavor and smooth frosting, these brownies are a hit at any gathering or simply as an indulgent snack at home.
