Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 32 servings Brownies: 8 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened baking chocolate 1 cup butter 5 eggs 3 cups white sugar 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 2 cups chopped walnuts Frosting: 1 1/4 cups white sugar 1 cup heavy cream 5 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened baking chocolate 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan. Make the brownies: Combine baking chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until chocolate is soft and butter is melted, about 2 minutes. Stir to mix. Beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed for 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and beat in melted butter-chocolate mixture. Beat in flour until just combined; do not overmix. Stir in chopped walnuts. Spread batter in the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with fudgy crumbs, about 35 minutes. Let cool in the pan. Meanwhile, make the frosting: Combine sugar and heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture begins to simmer, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 7 minutes without stirring. Remove from the heat. Add baking chocolate and butter; stir until melted and chocolate is blended in. Whisk in vanilla until smooth. Place into the refrigerator and stir every few minutes until frosting is chilled and thick, about 30 minutes. Frost the cooled brownies. Cut into 32 squares. Tips If using a glass brownie pan, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). You can use macadamia nuts in place of the walnuts if you like. I Made It Print 227 home cooks made it!
