Yield: 16 brownies

Ingredients

2½ cups all purpose flour
1 tsp salt½ tsp baking powder
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup unsalted butter
1½ cups packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
½ cup + 1 tbsp Irish cream liqueur, divided

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees c. Line an 8-inch square glass baking pan with foil.
2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
3. In a microwave-proof bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and thoroughly combined, stirring after each one. Set aside to cool.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, and ½ cup liqueur. Stir in the melted chocolate-butter mix until combined. Stir in the flour mix until just combined. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes or until cracked on top and a toothpick inserted comes out almost clean.
5. Remove brownies from the oven and brush with the remaining tbsp of Irish cream liqueur while still warm. Allow to cool completely before cutting and serving.
