BROWNIES!

Eric and I made these last week for the company that came over yesterday.

1/2 cup butter

1/4 cup cocoa

2 egs

1 cup sugar

3/4 cup flour

1/8tsp salt

In a small sauce pan melt butter & cocoa stirring as it melts, remove from heat.

In a medium bowl beat eggs until frothy, add sugar, flour and salt-pour cocoa mixture over top and stir all together.

Bake in an 8×8 pan (I line it with parchement paper) at 350 for approx 30mins or until the sides begin to pull away.

Icing:

1 1/3 cup icing sugar

1/3 cup cocoa

3 tbsp margarine

5 tsp water

Beat together and top the brownies once cooled.

On a side note, these brownies always remind me of my Oma.  I think that icing is exactly how she made “chocopasta”…she always had a jar on hand when I came over to visit!
