Batter:
- Add sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs to a large mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to combine the ingredients.
- Continue to mix until the ingredients are well blended. Add the mashed bananas and vanilla extract to the large mixing bowl.
- Again, mix until all ingredients are combined. In a second bowl add the flour, baking soda, and salt together.
- Mix to blend the ingredients. Add to the wet ingredients. Stir to mix.

- Bake at 375 degrees for 20-30 minutes. (Check to see if done by inserting a toothpick in the center of the pan. If the toothpick comes out clean the brownies are done.)

Frosting:

- Slice the stick of chilled butter.
- Heat a heavy skillet on medium heat.
- Add the butter, whisk often.
- Watch for the melted butter to begin to foam.
- Check often for light brown specks on the bottom of the skillet. (See if the melted butter has a nutty scent.) If so….

Frosting:
- Add 1 cup of powdered sugar at a time to the bowl. Stir immediately after adding the powdered sugar.
- Continue until you have added all 3 cups of powdered sugar. Make sure that all of the powdered sugar has been blended with the melted butter.
