• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 13 by 9 by 2-inch-baking pan with parchment or wax paper, so that the edges of the paper come up the sides. Lightly butter the paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• Combine the semi-sweet and unsweetened chocolates and the butter in a heatproof medium bowl. Fill a medium saucepan with a couple inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Turn off the heat. Set the bowl on the pan, over the heated water, to melt the chocolate gently. Whisk until smooth.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Stir the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until evenly blended. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until blended. Take care not to over mix the batter. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out coated with a fudge-y crumb, about 25 to 30 minutes. Cool the brownies in the pan on a rack. To make the glaze, put the semi-sweet chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, boil the heavy cream, and pour it over the chocolate. Let stand for 5 minutes, then stir until melted and smooth. Spread the glaze evenly over the brownies and let set at room temperature.

BROWNIES WITH A CHOCOLATE GLAZE AND MINT FROSTING

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle of oven; set to 325°F.
• Construct a foil sling: Cut one 18" length foil and fold it lengthwise so that it is 8-inches wide.
• Fit foil into length of 9x13-inch baking dish, pushing it into corners and up sides of pan; allow excess to overhang pan edges.
• Cut one 14-inch length foil and, if using extra-wide foil, fold it lengthwise so that it is 12" wide; fit into width of baking pan in same manner, perpendicular to first sheet.
• Spray foil-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder in medium bowl; set aside.
• Melt chocolate and butter in large heatproof bowl set over saucepan of almost-simmering water, stirring occasionally, until smooth.

Stir again, and, if necessary, repeat in 15-second increments; do not let chocolate burn.) When chocolate mixture is completely smooth, remove bowl from saucepan and gradually whisk in sugar.

• Bake until toothpick or wooden skewer inserted into center of brownies comes out with few moist crumbs attached, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Cool on wire rack to room temperature, about 2 hours.
• For the frosting: In standing mixer fitted with flat beater, beat butter and confectioners' sugar at low speed until just incorporated, then increase speed to medium and beat until smooth and fluffy, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Add 1 tablespoon milk and mint extract and continue to beat until combined, about 30 seconds, adding up to 1 additional tablespoon milk if necessary to achieve soft, spreadable consistency.
