BOURBON BROWNIES

BOURBON BROWNIES

1 pkg. brownie mix
1 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup chopped pecans (I also use walnuts)
2 cups sifted powder sugar
1/3 cup bourbon
1 (12 oz) pkg chocolate chips
1 stick butter, softend
1 tablespoon shortening

Mix brownie mix according to pkg. directions.
Add nuts. Pour into jellyroll pan. Bake 350 degrees F, 20-25 min. Pour bourbon over hot brownies. refrigerate.

Cream butter, extract and sugar. Spread on cold brownies.

Melt chocolate chips and shortening. Spread over top. Let cool and cut into bars.

Note: I once forgot to buy chocolate chips so I just microwaved a can of Betty Crocker frosting for about 45 sec. til runny and poured on top. It hardens back up a little after it cools. ~~~EmeraldEyz
