Tips for Making Fudge Topped Brownies:

Use high-quality ingredients. This will ensure that your brownies are rich, fudgy, and delicious. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%, and use real butter and eggs.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help them rise evenly and prevent them from sinking in the middle.
Don't overbake the brownies. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
Use a good quality frosting. The frosting is what makes these brownies extra special. Use a frosting that is rich, creamy, and flavorful.
