Paula Deen's Orange Brownies

1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 c. butter, softened
4 eggs
2 tsp. pure orange extract
1 tsp. grated orange zest

Glaze:
1 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. grated orange zest
2 Tbsp. fresh orange juice

Preheat oven to 350.  Grease 9x13-inch pan.  In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt.  Add butter, eggs, orange extract, and orange zest and beat with mixer until well-blended.  Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until light golden brown and set.  Remove from oven and pierce top of entire cake with a  skewer or a fork.  FOR GLAZE:  Combine all ingredients in a bowl, stirring until smooth.  Add more juice, if needed to create a pouring consistency.  Pour glaze over cake.  Cook cake and cut into squares.
