Recipe
Preheat oven to 325F. Line 8-inch square baking pan with foil,
extending foil over sides. Stir unsweetened chocolate and butter in
heavy large saucepan over low heat until melted and smooth. Cool 5
minutes. Whisk in sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk in eggs, 1 at a
time, then vanilla. Continue to whisk until batter is smooth, about
2 minutes. Add flour and whisk just until blended. Stir in chocolate
chips. Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing surface. Bake until
tester inserted into center comes out with a few moist crumbs
attached, about 35 minutes. Cool completely in pan on rack.
Whisk sugar, cream and butter in heavy small saucepan over low heat
until mixture is smooth and comes to boil. Remove from heat; mix in
vanilla. Cool 10 minutes. Whisk until thick enough to spread. Spread
over brownie. Sprinkle with almonds. Let stand until topping sets,
about 1 hour. Using foil as aid, lift brownie from pan. Cut brownie
into 16 squares.
