Full Time Fancy


Here’s a quick tip….Dress up store bought brownies with homemade frosting. It’s a quick and easy way to add a little glamour to an everyday dessert! I recently whipped up an Orange Buttercream Frosting to go with some brownie bites and it was a hit!

Orange Buttercream Frosting

*3 cups of powdered sugar
*1 cup of butter (2 sticks)
*1 tbls of orange juice (Fresh squeezed or store bought OJ)
*Zest of one orange
*1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
*1-2 tbls of milk (Depending on the consistency you wish)

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add milk until desired consistency is reached.
2. Add vanilla extract, orange juice & zest. Mix into frosting.
3. Add it into a gallon size Ziploc bag, clip the corner, and pipe onto brownies – VOILA! Your everyday dessert is now full-time fancy!
4. Pop one in your mouth and smile!
