***Brownies***
- 3/4 cup sifted flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup vegetable shortening
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 package semisweet chocolate pieces
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup golden rum or orange juice
***Orange Frosting***
- 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 teaspoon orange rind
***Chocolate Icing***
- 1 package (6 ounce size) semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
Sift flour, baking soda and salt onto wax paper. Combine sugar, shortening and water in a medium-size saucepan. Heat, stirring constantly, until sugar melts and mixture comes to boiling. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate pieces and vanilla until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Stir in flour mixture and walnuts. Spread evenly in 9 x 9 x 2-inch greased pan. Bake in a moderate oven at 325 degrees F for 30 minutes or until shiny and firm on top. Remove from oven; sprinkle rum or orange juice over top; cool completely. Spread Orange Frosting smoothly over top; chill until firm. Spread Chocolate Icing over frosting; chill. Remove from refrigerator about an hour before serving. Cut into squares. For Orange Frosting: Beat butter and orange rind in small bowl until creamy. Gradually beat in sugar alternately with enough of the orange juice to make it spreadable. For Chocolate Icing: Combine chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in the top of a double boiler. Set over hot, not boiling, water until melted.
