Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons espresso powder
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 95 grams all-purpose flour
- 25 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 100 grams powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons brewed espresso (cooled)
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth.
Whisk in the granulated sugar and espresso powder until combined. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the chocolate mixture until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before removing them using the parchment overhang.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, cooled brewed espresso, and milk in a small bowl until smooth and pourable.
Spread the glaze evenly over the cooled brownies. Allow the glaze to set for about 10 minutes before slicing.
Cut the brownies into squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
