Personal Notes:
This recipe is from Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman on the Food Network. I watched her make this for the ranch hands lunch dessert one day and she put all this on a 13 x 9" pan of brownies! That frosting was at least an inch thick! Maybe thicker then the brownie! I decided I wouldn't be "working it off" like the ranch hands, so when I made it I cut it in half for a pan of brownies. It is quite delicious and still more than enough frosting in my opinion. But unless you don't like a mocha flavor, I'd highly recommend this recipe. The full batch would certainly be plenty for a 2 or even 3 layer cake too.
