I'm team no frosting, but I feel the greater sin against brownies is putting nuts or chocolate chips in them, as that ruins the smooth, uniform chewy texture.
I feel like certain more cake-like brownies are fine with frosting on them but you're getting awfully close to just having a chocolate sheet cake at that point
Frosting on a fudgy brownie is madness, especially if anyone involved is over about 20-25 years old
a warm, fudgy brownie with a scoop of mint chip ice cream on top is fuckin number one with a bullet in my list of all time desserts.
I'm very close to agreeing with this, but I think a scoop of pistachio or coffee gelato is even better (or ice cream, I'm not picky).

Fucking hell I want a hot brownie right now.
I realize this sounds like some gross sex act but I actually just want a brownie that is fresh from the oven.

Too rich for my blood!
My true brownie heresy is that I think they're better once they've sat for at least one night. The crumb develops a chewiness that I find extremely pleasant.

I’m just trying to say I wish someone would put a hot brownie in my mouth.

I'll see that and raise you one - I prefer brownies frozen. Cooked, but then frozen, and then defrosted juuuuuust enough that you can bite through em without breaking your jaw.
The texture is somewhere between brownie and gummy, it's incredible.
I'm not a frosting, brownie, or fudge fan, preferring my sugar and chocolate in other forms; pretty sure it's mostly a texture thing, but often the sweetness is overwhelming. I'll occasionally like a thick schmear-1/4" of frosting, not the ice cream scoop (or more!) of horror popular on cupcakes, and a chewy crisp corner piece of a brownie (no nuts, no chips unless thoroughly melted) can be delightful plain or a la mode, and >80% of fudge I've had is chalky or kinda spongy or both.
Frosting should be there to cut any dryness and enhance a cakey thing with a touch of extra flavor and moisture. Even in its many forms, the best brownies (to include blondies) therefore don't qualify; it's either correctly soft/fudgy or al dente/chewy.
But I'll admit this is intriguing, as a fan of both these dinner mints. Do they add a cronch layer when cooled?
What you do is you get a bag of Andes Mint chips, spread them over the top of the brownies right after they come out of the oven, spread like frosting and let cool completely if you want to eat them without a fork, or eat warm if you feel like using a fork. Best brownies ever.

These days, I keep our house mostly gluten-free so my celiac partner ain't gotta fret, but a trick I learned as a kid from my grandpa was frozen Lil Debbie oatmeal cream pies; I'm betting it's just a slightly chewier version of why you like this. Though, I was also the kid who snacked on frozen waffles, so I'll attempt the cookie while still pretty frosty & snap bits of cookie off.

I also don't want frosting on cake, or at least not much, just a very light coat at most
Frosting is bad
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
But, caveat, I am a disgusting little crusty hobgoblin that will eat every baked good put in front of me without even fucking blinking.
I will point a gun at you if I think you're holding some back from me.
I will use it if you do not comply.
Nay, it's too sweet

Cookie brownies.
You talking ‘bout a brookie?
I’ll get down with a brookie
I don't know if there is a cake that you could have mentioned to make me disagree with this post more
unbelievably fucked up statement
Yeah, I don't like frosting on a brownie but caramel is always welcome. Especially when the brownie is still hot.
