Yeah, don't think you set it up right.  My guess would be that the intended solution is 1 Qf3...which is also mate in two.

if 1. Bc3 Bc2 2. Qxc2#. if 1. Qf3 PxQ 2. Bb1# if bishop moves then Qa3# and 1. Nc3 is also #.

Yes, there's a mate in one...which is why (as I say) the original poster probably made a mistake in setting up the position.
