Ingredients
  

Brownie Ingredients
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter (softened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee (cooled) Use freshly brewed for best flavor.
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips For gooey pockets of chocolate.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan (8x8 inches).
  2. In a bowl, cream together the sugar and softened butter until the mix is light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring they are fully blended before introducing the next. Add the vanilla extract and stir until combined.
  4. Sift the dry ingredients: cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder into the mixture. Fold gently.
  5. Stir in the brewed coffee until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips to give those lovely pockets of gooey chocolate throughout.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
Baking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges start to pull away from the pan.
  2. Let cool before frosting.

Notes

Use freshly brewed coffee for the best flavor. Don’t overmix the batter to maintain a fudgy texture. Add nuts or chocolate chunks for a twist.
