Description

Rich, dense, and ultra-chocolatey fudge brownies made with a special dash of espresso for enhanced depth of flavor.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (220g) brown sugar, packed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (80g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp instant espresso powder (special dash)
  • 1 cup (175g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Sift in the cocoa powder, flour, salt, baking powder, and espresso powder. Mix until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Allow to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • For extra fudgy brownies, do not overbake.
  • You can omit the espresso powder, but it enhances the chocolate flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
