  FOR THE BROWNIES: Position the rack in lowest third of oven and preheat to 
  350 F.  Butter sides of 9-inch square baking pan with 2-inch-high sides. 
  Fold 18x12-inch piece in half crosswise.  Line pan with foil, allowing 
  foil to extend over two sides.  Butter foil.  Melt both chocolates and 
  butter in heavy medium saucepan over very low heat, stirring until smooth. 
  Cool. 
  Sift flour and salt into small bowl.  Mix cream, espresso powder and creme 
  de menthe in small cup.  Using electric mixer, beat eggs and sugar in 
  large bowl until frothy.  Fold in coffee mixture and then melted 
  chocolate.  Fold in dry ingredients.  Spread batter evenly in prepared 
  pan.  Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out with some moist 
  crumbs still attached, about 25 minutes (surface may crack).  Gently press 
  down on any raised surfaces to flatten slightly.  Cool 30 minutes on rack. 
  FOR GLAZE: Melt both chocolates and butter in heavy small saucepan over 
  low heat, stirring until smooth.  Let stand until cool enough to spread. 
  Spread glaze over brownies.  Let stand 4 hours at room temperature. 
  Lift brownies from pan using foil sides.  Cut into squares.  (Can be 
  prepared 1 day ahead.  Store in airtight container.)
