KAHLUA FUDGE BROWNIES

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda and salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup peanut oil
1/4 cup espresso powder
4 eggs
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup Kahlua

Mix flour, baking cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Heat the chocolate chips and butter in a saucepan over low heat until blended, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Combine sugar, peanut oil, espresso and eggs in a mixer bowl. Beat for 5 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Add chocolate mixture. Beat just until blended. Add flour mixture, beating just until blended. Stir in pecans. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spoon the batter into a buttered 9x13-inch baking pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the edges pull from the sides of the pan; do not over bake. Cool to lukewarm on wire rack or just enough to handle pan.

Pour K Kahlua into a clean spray bottle. Spray the warm brownies with the Kahlua. Let stand until completely cool. To serve, cut into 3x4-inch brownies. Microwave just until warm. Split each bar into halves. Place the bottom half on a dessert plate and top with ice cream. Top with the remaining brownie half. Drizzle with warm fudge ice cream topping. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh strawberries and/or raspberries.
