When I’m in a pinch for time and need a big dessert for a crowd I usually turn to store a bought brownie mix.  These Chocolate Frosted Brownies are the perfect treat to take to a church social or for a family get together.

These Chocolate Frosted Brownies are easy to make and delicious on their own.  One of the great things about brownies is their versatility.  By adding a few more ingredients you can have a whole new brownie creation.  Like the coconut frosting I added to my GERMAN CHOCOLATE BROWNIES or the peanut butter frosting I added to my BROWNIES WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING.

For these crowd pleasing brownies I added a chocolate butter cream frosting.  Nothing like chocolate chocolate!
