Ingredients

Brownies:
1 red velvet box cake mix
3/4 cup butter, after melted
1 egg
1/2 cup water
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
(optional) 2 cups walnuts (chopped)

Marble Frosting:
225g (8 oz) butter cream frosting
115g (4 oz) triple chocolate frosting

Method

1. Preheat oven to 325°F.

3. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes and place the cake on wire cooling rack.
4. Frost brownie with butter cream frosting. Heat or microwave chocolate frosting for easy pouring. Pour 2 oz. chocolate frosting over butter cream layer.
5. Use a fork to blend two frostings for a marbled appearance, to desired pattern. Sprinkle brownie with remaining nuts.
6. Drizzle remaining chocolate frosting over the butter cream.
7. Put the brownie in the freezer to cool. Allow 10 minutes, cut and serve.

Myself and my kids love this - my mother-in-law used to make them. Can be made with or without nuts, and can add raisins instead.
