These are an amazing brownie for those of you who love chocolate – very fudgy, dense and chocolate!  Super simple to make. Do they need the icing?  Probably not.  But i say the more chocolate and sweetness,  the better.i underbaked these a bit.  I would probably bake them another 2 or  minutes next time.  But I did put them in the fridge to firm them up.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  I also made the icing while the brownies were cooling and frosted them while they were warm, which likely added to the gushiness!
