Yesterday Miss Two informed me that we haven't baked anything together since she was 5! Miss Two has only been 6 for two weeks, but she made it sound like an eternity since we have spent any time in the kitchen together. I guess two weeks is a very long time when you are 6 years old, so baking some brownies seemed to be the best way to remedy the problem!
Brownies
1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Blend melted butter, sugar and vanilla in large bowl. Add eggs; using a wooden spoon, beat well.
Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; gradually blend into egg mixture.
Spread in greased 9-inch square pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until brownie begins to pull away from the edges of the pan. Cool and frost with Creamy Brownie Frosting. Cut into squares.
Creamy Brownie Frosting
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons cocoa
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1-2 tablespoons milk
Cream butter, cocoa, corn syrup and vanilla in a small mixer bowl. Add confectioners' sugar and milk; beat to spreading consistency.

Cherish the moments, they go by too quickly, memories are being created! Your brownies look so yummy, tell Miss Two, I compliment the cooks!
How cute. I guess she loves to bake with Grandma. The brownies look so good.
Wow yummy homemade brownies! This girl knows something good when she sees it! Hope she enjoyed making them (and eating them :-)
