  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray or line a 9x13 pan with foil. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mixes, melted butter, buttermilk,eggs and vanilla; mix with a wooden spoon until completely mixed.
  3. Pour into pan and bake 45-60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted comes out with crumbs, but not batter.
  4. Prepare frosting by melting the butter in a saucepan on medium-low heat.
  5. Whisk in the cocoa powder and milk.
  6. Cook and stir until mixture thickens and just starts to boil.
