   Very delicious, I added chopped pecans to the frosting, yum

3. shandel says:

   These are so close to the recipe I've made for years. One delicious change you should definitely try is to use a STRONG cup of cold coffee in place of the water! It doesn't make it taste like coffee. It just gives the chocolate a more intense and rich flavor. It's SO good! Oh, and the buttermilk (or milk and vinegar) is a MUST in this recipe. It can make or break the actual results, so if anyone is thinking they can use milk instead, don't do it!

4. Mrs. K says:

   Ok, so I pinned both this recipe and Mom's Famous Marshmallow Brownies and I can't decide which to make for upcoming company. This looks richer & chocolate-ier but I also have a bag of marshmallows I'm wanting to use up. Do you think if I put the bag of marshmallows on top of this cake and bake prior to frosting if I could get the best of both worlds?

5. Camille says:

   You could definitely try it! The frosting might not look as pretty, but I bet that they would taste good!

6. MeeskiteMama says:

   Oh my goodness, I have made these brownies probably a dozen times since I first found the link to your blog on Pinterest a few months ago...they've been a hit wherever they've gone! Church dinners, family get togethers, or just for this house. I've never seen them last more than forty eight hours anywhere. Thank you (and your grandmother!) so much!

   Sounds so yummy! Regarding the 1/2 cup shortening, do you mean oil or something like Crisco?

8. Tygrr says:

   Can you freeze them?

9. Cyd says:

   Yes you can freeze these brownies. Just put them in a freezer bag or an airtight container.

10. Doris Oswald says:

    This is a favorite brownie recipe of ours. Recently, I've had trouble with the frosting crystalizing. Any helpful hints?

11. janet brown says:

    I've also made this with coffee for years. the best!

12. Courtney says:

    @snapshot - Crisco is a brand of shortening. If you are anti-soy like my house due to a food allergy, there are alternatives like coconut oil which is solid at a cool room temp of 70. They do also make some options that are still a shortening just without any soybean oil. Another option is lard. It would do the same thing.I am making these tonight for tomorrow.

13. Debbie says:

    I make mine with coffee as well and I add chopped pecans to the top of the brownies.

14. Susan says:

    I love these brownies! However after making them today I know why I stopped making them. I can't get the frosting onto to the cake quickly enough to be able to spread the frosting out smooth. I follow the recipe exactly but today's frosting was awful. Any suggestions? Thanks!

15. michelle says:

    Can I use all butter instead of shortening? Making these today for my sons birthday. Please help.

16. Sharla says:

    Michelle, did you make these with just butter? I had the same question since I don't have shortening....

17. Sandi says:

    I know this question was last year, but after dumping the frosting on top of the cake out of the mixing bowl, stick the cake pan back in the turned-off but still warm oven for 30-60 seconds and then spread. That should help.

18. Karen Fletcher says:

    I made these for the first time today. SO DELICIOUS!! I just wanted to drink the frosting. It was perfect. Thank you!!

19. Sharon Perkins says:

    I agree!!

20. Sharon Perkins says:

    YES!! I use marshmallows on top of reg. brownies, an nut also.

21. Sharon Perkins says:

    Yes Butter Flavor Crisco,

22. Sharon Perkins says:

    Yes I even freeze with icing, cover with wax paper and a heavy freezer bag,

23. Angela says:

    I need to make these using a 13 x 19 pan. Do you know what the baking time would be?

24. Cyd says:

    This recipe is for a sheet cake. You may need to make some recipe adjustments if making them in a smaller pan.

25. Sandi says:

    How long do the brownies last if you're not freezing them? What would their shelf life be if you're packaging the cut bars in individual cello packages? I wanted to try making these for a church fair but we have to individually wrap them for selling at the country store. Almost every person who buys baked goods asks the same question.

26. Cyd says:

    They are probably good for 2 days, and then they won't taste quite as fresh. You could easily freeze them and then thaw and package. That way you could make them ahead of time.
