   to cover pan completely. Bake at 325F for 20 minutes
   or till top is shiny. Test with toothpick, centre

   wire rack. Icing: Melt butter in pan over medium heat,
   add coffee. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
   Remove from heat and blend in milk and icing sugar.
   Beat till icing is smooth. Let icing cool till it is
   thick enough to spread. Frost brownies. Meanwhile melt
   2 squares semisweet chocolate (in microwave or on top
   of double boiler). Immediately pour melted chocolate
   into ziploc baggie and seal. Snip corner from bag and
   squeeze out over frosted brownies in crisscross
   pattern. With a blunt knife, swirl chocolate and icing
   together to create marbled effect. Cut into bars when
   icing has set.
