Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box brownie mix (or your favorite homemade version)
- Ingredients required by the mix (usually eggs, oil, water)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

- 2–3 tbsp Baileys Irish Cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt

Instructions
- Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. Bake and let them cool completely.
- Beat softened butter until fluffy. Add powdered sugar gradually, then mix in Baileys, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and creamy.
