- In a medium bowl with electric mixer, beat the cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar, liqueur, 1 egg, 3 tablespoons flour, and flavoring, if using. Beat until smooth and creamy. Spoon over the chocolate layer and gently swirl through the chocolate batter.
- Bake the brownies for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely. Spread with the cooled ganache (below).

Stir until chocolate is melted, then whisk until smooth and thickened. Stir in vanilla. Let cool slightly then spread over the brownies. If desired, sprinkle shredded or chopped mint candies over the brownies.
