Rocky Road Brownies

Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge Brownie Mix
Follow the fudge recipe on back using 2 eggs.  Bake at 325 in a 9x13 pan.  Check after 22 minutes.  Do NOT over bake.  

As soon as they come out of the oven, sprinkle mini marshmallows on top.  Immediately pour frosting on the warm brownies.  The secret is to do every step while things are hot.

Frosting – Cook on stove top while brownies are baking so that you can spread (pour) when it comes out of the oven after you put marshmallows on top.  

Slowly melt thoroughly the following:
1/3 cup plus 1T. Milk
1 stick of margarine or butter
2 squares of Bakers unsweetened chocolate

After melted remove from stove and add 1 box of confectioner’s sugar and 1 t. vanilla.  Mix until very smooth and have ready to spread quickly.

(Can be refrigerated for a day before cutting....I never make it).
