1. 1Preheat oven to 350°F
2. 2Prep a large 1117 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
3. 3In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and sugar.
4. 4Heat butter, shortening, coffee, and cocoa in a saucepan until boiling, making sure to stir frequently to keep from scorching.
5. 5Pour boiling mixture over flour/sugar mixture.
6. 6Next add buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract.
7. 7Mix well with a hand mixer or large spoon, until smooth.
8. 8Pour batter into baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, until a fork inserted in the middle comes out cleanly.
9. 9While cooling, prepare glaze.
10. 10In a sauce pot (I use the same pot from earlier) heat butter, cocoa powder and milk until boiling, stirring constantly to keep from scorching. Turn off heat and add powdered sugar, a little at a time stirring after each addition to blend well. I use a wire whisk to mix evenly.
11. 11Pour hot glaze over brownies and allow to cool.
