Stir in flour, then chopped bittersweet chocolate and unsalted peanuts. Transfer batter to prepared pan; smooth top. Bake until tester inserted into center comes out with some moist crumbs still attached, about 45 minutes. Cool at least 1 hour. (Brownies can be made 8 hours ahead. Cool completely. Cover and store at room temperature.) Using foil sides as aid, lift brownies from pan. Fold down foil sides. Cut into squares or triangles. Transfer brownies to plates. Place scoop of ice cream next to each brownie. Spoon warm sauce around brownies and serve immediately. Serves 12.
