All You Need:

  • ½ Cup of butter
  • 1½ cups of sugar

  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp red food coloring

For the Frosting:

  • ½ cup butter
  • 2½ cups icing sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 ounces of white chocolate melted
  • ½ tsp milk

Preheat your oven to 175℃ and prepare your brownie tray with baking paper and set aside.

In a small bowl mix the cocoa powder, food coloring and 1 tsp of the vanilla to form a paste and set aside.

Beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time beating well in between. Then add the second tsp of vanilla and stir till combined. Beat in the cocoa paste. Next, add in the flour and salt to the mixture and stir well with a wooden spoon till just combined. 

Spread the mixture into the brownie tray and bake for 25-30 minutes until inserted skewer comes out clean. Leave brownies to cool fully before frosting.

To make the icing: beat the butter till fluffy, add the vanilla and slowly mix, add in the icing sugar gradually beating well after each, then add the white chocolate and beat till combined. you can add the milk to reach the desired consistency. when the brownie is cool you can spread the icing on using a knife.
