Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup butter (, softened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 ripe bananas (, mashed)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon table or fine sea salt
  • 1/2-1 cup chopped walnuts (, you can omit if desired)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups confectioner’s sugar

Instruction

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Line a 9x13" pan with parchment paper, or grease and flour. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat together sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs until creamy. Blend in bananas and vanilla extract.
  • In separate bowl, whisk (or sift) the flour, baking soda and salt together.
  • Add the flour to the banana mixture and mix just until combined. Stir in walnuts if desired. Spread batter evenly into pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean.
  • Prepare the frosting as the brownies bake by heating butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar to the melted butter and bring to a boil, stirring continuously for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  • Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Whisk together until smooth (it will be thinner than frosting). Using a spatula, spread the brown butter frosting over brownies. This is best done when both ingredients are warm. Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top if desired.
  • Slice brownies into 24 squares. Serve warm, room temperature or even cold!
