Ingredients You’ll Need
Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious brownies:
How To Make
- Prep Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Melt the Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. It should be completely melted but not too hot.
- Mix in the Sugars: Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the melted butter. Stir until well combined.
- Add the Eggs and Vanilla: Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, and instant espresso powder.
- Mix it All Together: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix.
- Add Espresso and Chocolate Chips: Pour in the shot of brewed espresso and give it a good stir. If you like, fold in the chocolate chips for extra gooeyness.
- Bake: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center will still be a bit soft.
- Cool and Serve: Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack. Once cooled, cut them into squares, and enjoy!
These Espresso Brownies are a perfect blend of rich chocolate and bold coffee. Enjoy them with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee for an extra treat!
