That would be 2 forward passes.

Ordinarily, any passer is prohibited from catching his own pass. But since B touched the pass in flight, any A player may catch it. So you have a complete forward pass. Another may not be thrown during the down.

You might be thinking of the kick rule here, which does not apply to forward passes.
