Irish Cream Chocolate Ganache Frosting
10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup Irish cream liquor

Place the chocolate in a medium bowl.

In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the heavy cream and Irish cream until they just bubble around the edges. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate and let it sit for a minute, then stir continuously until the chocolate melts into the cream and comes together into a uniform mixture. Let the frosting sit for at least one hour at room temperature, then spread it all over the brownies. Let the frosting covered brownies sit for a few minutes before cutting.*

Chocolates ganache frosting

3 1/2 oz 80 to 85% dark chocolate chopped
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

For the ganache, melt the chocolate, heavy cream, butter, and honey together in a double boiler or microwave and stir together until smooth. Let the ganache cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate briefly to chill (just until it's spreadable like frosting).
Spread the ganache onto the cooled brownies and let it set before cutting and serving.
