Recipe of the Day - Brownie Pops

Courtesy of Me

Difficulty Level: Easy
Rating: 4 stars

So, I found this idea on Living Locurto - but I am adding my recipes for frosting and melted chocolate. Super easy, fun and delicious. Hope you enjoy:

1 box brownie mix
chocolate icing (recipe below)
melted chocolate (directions below)

Cook brownies to directions on box. Let cool completely. While cooling, make frosting:

3 cups powdered sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 stick butter, softened
3-4 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla

Sift sugar and cocoa together into a large bowl. In another bowl, combine 1 cup of sugar mixture with butter and 1 tablespoon cream, beating until smooth. Add another cup of sugar and another tablespoon of cream, beating well. Continue until all ingredients are combined and frosting is fluffy. Beat in vanilla.

Take completely cooled brownies and break them apart (I just used my hands and went to town). Roll them into balls with the frosting (1/2 frosting, 1/2 brownie). But into the freezer for about 30 minutes. While in freezer, make melted chocolate:

1 small can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup chocolate chips

Pour sweetened condensed milk into a small saucepan over medium heat. When hot, pour in chocolate chips and stir until smooth.

Put brownie balls onto sticks (toothpicks work) and dip into melted chocolate.
