Roselyn’s was a bakery here in Indiana that I loved, although, in all honesty, I’ve never met a bakery I didn’t love! But their brownies…….well I wouldn’t mind if heaven’s streets were paved in these and not gold!
It’s the combination of a fudgy yet fully baked brownie, the thick chocolate icing, and the pièce de ré·sis·tance, I think, is the sugar-coated bottom!

Tips, Tricks, Comments, and Questions
This recipe calls for sunflower oil—that’s what I usually use. However, I have also used regular vegetable oil, and the brownies are fine! So don’t panic if you don’t have it, but everything else!!
