Peanut Butter Brownies

From: Rita

Michi's Brownies
3 cubes butter
3/4 C. cocoa powder
3 C. sugar
Cream; add:
6 eggs, one at a time, beating each one in
2 1/4 C. flour
1 Tbl. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
These are best mixed by hand, or they overflow the pan. I used a mixer but on the lowest speed. Bake in a greased rimmed cookie sheet at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

For the peanut butter frosting:
Whip 2 C. creamy peanut butter with mixer until fluffy. Spread on hot brownies. Top with:
Fudge Frosting
1 C. white sugar
1/4 C. cocoa powder
6 Tbl. milk
1/4 C. butter
Bring to a boil, cook 5 minutes. Add about 1 C. powdered sugar (may need more) and 1 tsp. vanilla, beat till smooth. Pour over peanut butter, swirl it through. It sets up fast!
