BROWNIES: Melt 2 ½ sticks butter (1 1/4 cups).
Add cocoa, eggs and granulated sugar and mix with an electric mixer or whisk.
Stir in flour, sprinkles and nuts.
Grease and flour a 9x13" baking dish.
Bake at 350° for 45-55 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Allow brownies to cool about 30 minutes before adding icing.
FUDGE ICING: Cook butter and cocoa for 1-2 minutes on medium heat.
Remove from burner.
Add powdered sugar and milk and whisk to combine.
Then add a dash of salt and vanilla.
Spread fudge icing over brownies working quickly so frosting stays smooth.
Sprinkle evenly with sprinkles.
Allow brownies to set up before cutting into bars.
NOTE: My brownies took about 45-50 minutes to bake completely, but some ovens may bake this recipe more quickly.
