Do you have a brownie lover in your home?
If you do then you better make a double batch of these scrumptious brownies. They are so delicious in no time there will be just crumbs left in the bottom of the pan!
Everytime I make these brownies I’m always asked for the recipe and I’m always hesitant to give it out. It’s not that I’m one of those “no you can’t have my recipe” type of people (I think those people are ridiculous). I enjoy giving out my recipes, hence the food blog!
It’s just that…
These brownies start out with a box mix. There, I said it! They are crazy good and they start off with a regular grocery store bought box. It’s what you do to that box mix that makes them so delicious! They become the most decadent, fudgy, moist, perfect bit of heaven on earth!
- 1 Box of any brand brownie mix (18 - 20 oz. chewy or fudge style)
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- ***FROSTING
- 4 tablespoons butter, very soft
- 5 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons corn syrup
- 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- ¼ cup milk
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9X13 with parchment paper and lightly spray with baking spray.
- In a mixer add brownie mix, milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla and mix with the paddle attachment. Once full combined spoon batter into the sprayed parchment lined baking pan.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Set brownies aside to cool completely.
- To make the frosting:
- In a medium bowl whisk together the butter, cocoa powder, corn syrup, and sifter powdered sugar using a mixer or by hand. Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies.
So, if you’re a brownie lover or you know one, do yourself a favor and make a batch of these!
Until Next Time…

I love new brownie recipes that I can try out. This is definitely a little different using box-mix! Interesting,
Alicia, I was a little susoicious at first, but after I made it, wow! It’s delicious!
Nothing wrong with using a box mix and dressing it up! These looks delicious!
Lisa, They really are!
We are a brownie lover. we make it at least once a week every weekend. I love your recipe especially the frosting looks delicious. Definitely trying this.
Brownies are literally my biggest weakness – haha!! Funnily enough, though, I used to hate them! I’ll definitely need to try these 🙂 I’m convinced that by the end of my blogging career I’ll probably have a variety of brownie recipes in the double digits on my blog – lol!
There’s nothing more comforting than a warm, moist, and fudgy brownie…just like yours. I definitely make an extra batch because you just never know when you need one 🙂
Hi Linda, Aren’t brownies the best? You are so right, it’s always a good idea to have brownies around, just in case! Thank you for the comment, I’m a huge fan of your blog!
Tastes good but looked and had The texture of cake. I’m assuming I messed something up
Hi Michelle, I just made these the other night and they were definitely brownie like. I’m wondering if the box mix itself make the difference? I use the cheapest box mix I can find.
Hi.. i will try it.. But the ONLY box mix worth anything starts with a Gi and ends with ardelli.. 🙂 There is a distinct difference. They are close to homemade from scratch.. I add extra choc chips, extra semi-sweet chips, a little extra cocoa, walnuts and viola. Amazingness.. Add your frosting and it sounds like it might be criminal.
Your version sounds wonderful also! To me any brownie is a great brownie!
