Fast Fudgy Freezer Brownies
To me there are few treats better in the world than a well made and frosted brownie. YUM! Because today is National Chocolate Day (and coincidentally my wedding anniversary) I wanted to share this really fast and easy fudgy brownie recipe with you today. It may just become your go-to brownie recipe. It has become that for me!
One thing that I like to do with leftover brownies is freeze them in an airtight container. Then whenever I want a quick treat I can grab one out of the freezer and eat it immediately. Frozen brownies are seriously so good.

I made these brownies last night and omitted the salt in the frosting. They were so easy to make and super yummy with the frosting on them!! They are the best. 🙂

So glad you liked them Tina!
Hi, I’d love to make these…….
but can I use unsweetened almond milk instead?
What about reducing sugar?
I miss sweets and love reading these delish recipes you share!
yes you can use almond milk in the frosting. I am not sure about reducing sugar! I have never tried it and am definitely not an expert on making sweets “healthier” haha!
We made these last week and they were a hit. Easy to make (my 3 yr old helped) and my hubby grabs one from the freezer almost every night. So so good. Thank you!

I’m so glad you like them. I want to make another batch right now!
I freeze cookies all the time, but I’ve never thought to freeze brownies. I’m definitely going to try these for those times when I get a chocolate craving!
