Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ap flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 sticks of butter
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup whole milk

Dark Chocolate Fudge Icing

  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 5 tbsp dark cocoa powder
  • 4 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tsp chocolate extract
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Cosmic Brownie candies Amazon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and generously grease your baking dish.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and sour cream until smooth.
  • Add the granulated sugar, flour, and baking soda. Mix until everything is combined. The mixture will be thick at this stage.
  • In a saucepan over medium-low heat, add the butter, milk, regular cocoa powder, dark cocoa powder, and chocolate extract. Heat, stirring frequently, until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and chocolatey.
  • Carefully pour the warm chocolate mixture into your flour mixture. Stir everything together until you have a smooth, evenly combined chocolate batter.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
    Bake at 350°F until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • While the cake is baking, add the butter, milk, and dark cocoa powder to a saucepan.
  • Heat over medium-low heat, stirring until the butter is melted and the mixture is completely smooth.
    Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and chocolate extracts.
    Gradually whisk in the 4 cups confectioners' sugar until the frosting is smooth, thick, and glossy.
  • Pour the warm chocolate icing over the warm cake and spread it all the way to the edges.
    Immediately sprinkle the Cosmic Brownie candies over the top before the icing begins to set.
    Allow the cake to cool and the fudgy icing to set before slicing. 🍫🌈✨

Notes

✨ Fancy Mom Tips

Using dark cocoa powder in the icing is the secret to getting that beautiful contrast between the chocolate cake and the darker, fudgy topping. Don’t wait too long to add your Cosmic Brownie candies—sprinkle them on while the frosting is still warm so they stick.
I used a deeper baking dish for my Cosmic Brownie Sheet Cake, which gave me a thicker, soft and rich chocolate cake. If you prefer a thinner cake, you can absolutely bake yours in a traditional sheet pan. It’ll be thinner but still soft, chocolatey, and gooey!
Because I used a deeper baking dish, I had plenty of fudge icing to completely cover my cake. If you’re using a larger sheet pan or simply don’t like as much icing, you may not need to use all of the fudge icing. Add as much or as little as you like—although around here, extra chocolate is never a bad thing! 🍫✨
