Make the brownies first.
1. Preheat the oven to 350*F.

The dry ingredients into the creamed mixture and blend well. Stir
In the chopped nuts if you are using them.
5. Pour the batter into a 9 x 13-inch baking pan that has been
Coated with butter or cooking spray and lightly floured. Bake the
Brownies in the hot oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick
Inserted into the center comes out slightly sticky.
6. Cool the pan on a wire rack, then cut into 6 or 8 individual
Brownies.

Assemble the brownies.

Over each one.
