    I only made the frosting--needed a coffee frosting and was lucky to find this one--easy to do, pipes beautifully and tastes terrific. I used espresso powder dissolved in 1/2 and 1/2. Thanks, Marg!

    Wonderful treat! Great brownie and the icing is a must! It all gets just a bit too sweet for us, but I would not omit the icing , but maybe even halve the sugar in dough, instead. I would also add some more bitternes to the dough with more coffe. Awsome!

    I discovered I didn't have any shortening but I really wanted to try these, so I subbed another 1/2 c. of butter. This made an extremely dense, fudgy brownie but the taste was out of this world. I generally am not a fan of brownies and actually made these for dh, but I haven't been able to leave them alone! They will not be made often because they are definitely not WW friendly and I seem to have no willpower where these are concerned, but they are amazing!
