Preparation Steps for Brownies
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt; set aside.
  4. In a saucepan, place the butter and chopped chocolate. Melt over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth.

  8. Stir in the flour mixture with a wooden spoon until just combined.
  9. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  10. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before frosting.
Preparation Steps for Buttercream
  1. Place the softened butter, powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons of Baileys Irish Cream in a large bowl. Blend together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  2. Once the brownies are completely cool, spread the Baileys buttercream frosting evenly on top.
  3. Cut into squares and serve.
