Irish Cream Brownies

Submitted by GoodnPlentiful

"A recipe my husband and I have used from AAA-recipes.com. These are so decadent and rich but well worth the fat and calories. I haven't made the frosting but, in my opinion, they are just as fantastic without it. I just use more Irish Cream to sprinkle over top. The baking time seems to be off as I have baked for 40+ minutes and it is still gooey in the middle. Of course, it is the best this way. Enjoy!"
