Spread onion mixture over and under brisket. Arrange mushrooms and carrots around brisket; place bay leaves on brisket. Mix remaining ingredients in a bowl; spoon over all. Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 3-1/2 to 4 hours. Allow to cool, discarding bay leaves. Slice brisket and serve with sauce and vegetables from pan.
