BROWNIES WITH ORANGE ICING (FROSTING)
I've fallen in love with the chocolate and orange combination and wanted a brownie recipe to add to my collection. This is what I came up with. I didn't measure the zest or juice. I used half the zest of a large orange in each part and squeezed in enough orange juice to make a smooth icing.
