These are THE BEST brownies ever!! They are moist and rich and ... well, even my husband who does not really eat sweets can't stop eating until they are gone.

Best Brownies

2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter
4 T cocoa
1 cup water
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt

Mix well the sugar, salt & flour. Bring to a boil the shortening, butter, cocoa, and water. Add to the flour & sugar mixture and mix well. Add buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and baking soda. Bake in a jelly roll pan at 350 for 25 minutes.

Frosting:
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup mini marshmellows

Bring sugar, milk, and butter to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and add chips and marshmellows. Beat thoroughly. Frost when brownies and frosting have cooled.

Enjoy!

Thanks for this one. Brownies are my very favorite thing in the world and I can't wait to try them.

Why make this when you can make the Ghiradelli double choclate brownies? Right from the box, add just eggs and water (I think) and away you go! Now those are the best brownies ever! x:9
