• Whisk together flour, baking powder, soda, and sea salt, and set aside. In a large bowl, place chcocolate and oil.
• Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between to melt the chocolate, until the chocolate and oil are smooth and well combined.
• In a food processor, combine habaneros and agave nectar, and process until peppers are very finely chopped and well blended into the agave nectar.
• Pour into the bowl with the chocolate mixture, along with vanilla and whisk to blend until well incorporated.
• Add eggs, and whisk until well combined, then add the flour mixture and whisk until well blended.
• Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 25-35 minutes until set, starting to pull away from the edges of the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out fairly clean.
• Do not overbake! Let cool in pan for about 10 minutes, then lift foil out by the edges and cool on a rack.
• To make frosting, combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Spread over brownies. Let set for at least an hour, then cut into 24 bars.
