Ingredients

4 ounce Unsweetened chocolate
8 tablespoon Unsalted butter; room temp
1 1/4 cup Plus 1 tbsp. sugar
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
3 lg Eggs; room temp
3/4 cup All-purpose flour
1/2 cup Plus 2 tbsp chopped walnuts

Directions

1
Preheat your oven to 325ÃÂ°F (165ÃÂ°C).
2
Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
3
Melt the 4 ounces of unsweetened chocolate and 8 tablespoons of butter together in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate mixture, 1 1/4 cups of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
5
Beat in the 3 eggs, one at a time, until well combined and glossy.
6
Gently fold in the 3/4 cup of all-purpose flour just until no dry streaks remain; do not overmix.
7
Stir in 1/2 cup of the chopped walnuts.
8
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
9
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a thin crust forms on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
10
Remove from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
11
To make the frosting, melt the remaining 1.5 ounces of unsweetened chocolate.
12
In a mixing bowl, combine the melted chocolate, 1/3 cup sugar, and 1/4 cup evaporated milk (or heavy cream if preferred).
13
Beat the frosting mixture on medium-high speed for about 3 to 5 minutes until it becomes thick, pale, and fluffy, resembling a mousse.
14
Spread the fluffy frosting evenly over the completely cooled brownies.
15
Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of chopped walnuts.
16
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set the frosting before cutting into squares.
