Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9×13'' inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Chop the butter and the unsweetened chocolate into chunks and place together in a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave on low power in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted. (You could also melt them over LOW heat in a saucepan, stirring constantly). Set aside to cool, stirring occasionally.
- In a large bowl beat together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Slowly add the melted chocolate, while stirring.
- In a separate small bowl combine the flour and baking powder. Stir the flour into the chocolate batter, just until combined. Don't over-mix.
- Pour batter into greased pan and bake for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
- Combine all frosting ingredients and beat until light and fluffy. Add more milk if you want it thinner.
- Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled brownies. Refrigerate while you make the chocolate glaze.
- Place chocolate chips and butter in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave one low power in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Allow to cool for about 5-10 minutes.
- Spread evenly over the frosted brownies. Return to fridge to allow the chocolate to harden.
- Allow the bars to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before cutting into squares. (If you try to cut into them while they are cold the top chocolate layer will crack pretty easily and they wont be as pretty).

MINT JULEP BROWNIES
From Coastal Living. We love the Chocolate Bourbon Brownies With Double Frosting (#92550) I have listed, and here's another using bourbon, with the added attraction of mint. Edited to add: I just made these, and I would encourage anyone trying these to use a smaller pan (8x8 or 9x9) because these do come out pretty thin! I used a bit less sugar and a little more of both the bourbon and peppermint extracts.

Tips:
- To ensure fudgy brownies, use a combination of melted butter and oil in the batter. The melted butter adds richness, while the oil helps keep the brownies moist.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dry brownies. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are well combined.
- For a chewy brownie, use a higher proportion of flour to sugar. For a fudgier brownie, use a higher proportion of sugar to flour.
- Bake the brownies in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the brownies bake evenly.
- Do not overbake the brownies. Overbaking can result in dry, crumbly brownies. Test the brownies for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are done.
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
Conclusion:
Mint bourbon brownies are a delicious and decadent treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them fudgy, chewy, or somewhere in between, these brownies are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
