Chocolate Bourbon Brownies With Double Frosting image

When I made these for my husband, he called them "the single best thing you've ever made for me." It doesn't get much better than that! These are fairly involved to make, but they are worth the effort. The white frosting layer reminds me of the filling for Oreos. This came from a Southern Living Magazine cookbook.

These brownies were a bit too boozy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less bourbon.

I'm not a big fan of bourbon, but I decided to give these brownies a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The bourbon flavor is subtle and it really complements the chocolate. These brownies are definitely a new favorite of mine.
