Dark Chocolate Brownies with PB Frosting

[superbadgirl]

Nummmmy. Actually, I haven't eaten one, but the frosting is delicious and the crumbs of the brownies I sampled when I cut them were moist and tasty. I used this base recipe because it's a lazy Sunday and I was lured by the term easy in the title. They were, in fact, easy.

Things I changed, which I already mentioned in prior post:

Used half white whole wheat flour
Used dark cocoa
Cut sugar to 1 1/4 cup
Cut butter to 4 TB
Added half a medium avocado in place of remainder of butter and skipped the oil
Added a bit of milk to loosen the batter (the lack of oil made it thick)

For the frosting, it's a lot of bad stuff. Because, frosting:

6 oz cream cheese
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 sticks butter (!) <-- probably could have pared this down
2 tsp vanilla
3 cups confectioner's sugar
