- Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 13 by 9 by 2-inch-baking pan with parchment or wax paper, so that the edges of the paper come up the sides.
- Lightly butter the paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Set aside.
- Combine the semi-sweet and unsweetened chocolates and the butter in a heatproof medium bowl.
- Fill a medium saucepan with a couple inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Turn off the heat.
- Set the bowl on the pan, over the heated water, to melt the chocolate gently.
- Whisk until smooth.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
- Stir the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until evenly blended.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix just until blended.
- Take care not to over mix the batter.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out coated with a fudge-y crumb, about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Cool the brownies in the pan on a rack.
- To make the glaze, put the semi-sweet chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl.
- In a small saucepan, boil the heavy cream, and pour it over the chocolate.
- Let stand for 5 minutes, then stir until melted and smooth.
- Spread the glaze evenly over the brownies and let set at room temperature.
- Lift the edges of the paper to take the brownies out of the pan.
- Cut the brownies into 24 squares.
- Serve.
