Tips:

Use the best quality chocolate you can find. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the brownies.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the brownies tough.
Be sure to bake the brownies 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 prevent the frosting from melting.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
You can add nuts, chocolate chips, or other mix-ins to the batter before baking.
Brownies can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
