    List of Ingredients




    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 cups sugar
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 cup butter
    1 cup water
    1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup buttermilk
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
    1/4 cup butter
    3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
    3 tablespoons buttermilk
    2 1/4 cups sifted powdered sugar
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla
    3/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans

    Recipe




    Grease a 15x10x1-inch or a 13x9x2-inch baking pan; set aside. In a medium mixing bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

    In a medium saucepan combine the 1 cup butter, water, and the 1/3 cup cocoa powder. Bring mixture just to boiling, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add the chocolate mixture to the flour mixture; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Add the eggs, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla. Beat for 1 minute (batter will be thin). Pour batter into the prepared pan,
    spreading evenly.

    Bake brownies in a 350 degree F oven about 25 minutes for the 15x10x1-inch pan, 35 minutes for the 13x9x2-inch pan, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan combine the 1/4 cup butter, the 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and the 3 tablespoons buttermilk. Bring mixture to boiling. Remove from heat. Add powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Beat until smooth. If desired, stir in pecans.

    Pour warm frosting over the warm brownies, spreading evenly. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.

    Yield: 24 brownies
