Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Brownies:
3/4 c Flour
1/4 ts Baking powder
1/4 ts Salt
1/3 c Honey
2 tb Strong coffee
1/2 c Butter
1 c Chocolate chips
2 Eggs
1 c Walnuts -- chopped
2 tb Coffee
Rum, Kahlua, or amaretto
Frosting:
6 tb Butter -- softened
1 1/2 c Confectioners sugar
1 ts Vanilla
Milk -- if needed
Chocolate Topping:
1 c Chocolate chips
1 tb Butter
1 tb Vegetable shortening
Almond slices (optional)
Sift together flour, baking powder, salt. Set aside. In a saucepan,
melt honey, coffee, butter, chocolate chips. Stir often. Add 2 eggs,
one at a time to saucepan. Mix well. Add flour mixture to saucepan.
Stir well. Add walnuts, chopped to pan.
Pour brownie mixture into greased 8x8" pan, bottom lined with greased
wax paper. Bake in 325°F oven for 25 minutes. Remove from oven.
Brush brownie top with: coffee, rum, or Kahlua (I used amaretto).
Cool completely. Remove from pan. Set aside.
Frosting:
Cream softened butter with mixer until light and fluffy. Add, very
gradually, confectioners sugar until smooth. Add vanilla. I used
amaretto to taste. If necessary, add a little milk to make frosting
smoother and more spreadable. Spread over cooled brownie. Refrigerate
until quite cold.
Chocolate Topping:
Melt chocolate chips, butter, and vegetable shortening in double
boiler. Mix well. Pour over the layer of frosting. Spread evenly.
Sprinkle almond slices over top, if desired. Cool. Cut into small
squares. It's helpful to cut into pieces or at least score chocolate
layer before the chocolate is completely hardened.
