Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 125 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons strong brewed coffee
- 100 grams powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 115 grams of unsalted butter and 200 grams of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
Whisk in 200 grams of granulated sugar and 100 grams of brown sugar into the melted chocolate mixture until fully combined.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together 125 grams of all-purpose flour, 30 grams of unsweetened cocoa powder, and 0.5 teaspoons of salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
While the brownies are cooling, prepare the Kahlua coffee glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of strong brewed coffee, 2 tablespoons of Kahlua, 100 grams of powdered sugar, and 1 tablespoon of melted unsalted butter until smooth and glossy.
Once the brownies are completely cool, spread the Kahlua coffee glaze evenly over the top. Allow the glaze to set for about 15 minutes.
Cut the brownies into 12 squares and serve. Enjoy!
