FOR THE BROWNIES:
2 cups Chocolate Chips
1/2 cups Margarine
1/2 cups Brown Sugar
1/2 cups White Sugar
3 whole Eggs
1/2 cups Cocoa Powder
1 cup Flour
1 teaspoon Salt

1
For the brownies:
2
Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare 16 muffin tins by spraying them with Pam baking spray. Set aside.
3
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt chocolate chips and margarine. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in sugars. Stir until combined and dissolved. Add batter to the bowl of a stand mixer. Let it cool for about 5 minutes.
4
Add eggs, incorporating them one at a time into the chocolate mixture. While your stand mixer is working, whisk together cocoa powder, flour and salt in a small bowl. Once all the eggs have been added, alternate adding in flour mixture and Guinness beer. Mix until everything is incorporated. Then, add in vanilla.
5
Pour brownie batter into prepared muffin tins. You can also opt to make a regular pan of brownies and use a square cutter to remove them, or just ice the entire pan. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. When done, remove them from the oven and allow to cool before icing them.
6
While brownies are baking, prepare the icing. Cream together Crisco and butter. Add in powdered sugar and Baileys and mix until combined. Add in vanilla and mix. Taste and adjust to your preferred sweetness level. Ice brownies once they have cooled.
