Instructions

Cut the butter into cubes, and break the chocolate into pieces.
Add them to a pan set over a low heat, and allow them to melt into a smooth paste.
Remove from the pan, and allow it to cool.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs together with the brown and regular sugar using a hand mixer.
Once the mixture is smooth, sift in the flour, cocoa powders and add the baileys.
Pour in the melted chocolate mixture, and give it a good mix.
Line a baking tray with non stick paper (mine is 21 cm/8 inches).
Transfer the mixture in the pan, and bake at 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit) for 25 minutes until the top is cracked, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean or with just a few wet crumbs.

The only thing that could go wrong when baking brownies is the texture. Unlike you want a cakey-like dessert, then the famous cracked top and fudgy consistency are a must. It might seem that there is too little flour, but don't be tempted to increase the amount, otherwise the texture will change.
The brown sugar helps with the chewiness, so I like to use it along with the regular granulated sugar,. I really like it.
If you are unsure if the brownies are cooked, insert a toothpick in the middle, if it comes out too wet, leave the brownies in for a further 2-3 minutes. If the toothpick comes out with only a few wet crumbs, they are done.
