Here's a step-by-step recipe for making Coffee Brownies:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 ½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- ¼ cup (59 ml) brewed coffee
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¾ cup all purpose flour
- 1 ½ cup chocolate chunks
- ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to easily lift the brownies out later.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Stir in the brewed coffee. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Sift in the cocoa powder and salt, then mix until combined. Add the flour and stir until just incorporated.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chunks and semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan and cut into squares. Enjoy!
These Coffee Brownies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
