6-Ingredient Espresso Brownies
Learn how to make the 6 Ingredient Espresso Brownies, Rich and decadent brownies infused with bold espresso flavor – the perfect delicious treat for chocolate and coffee lover alike.
Ingredients
- 1 cup 225g unsalted butter, melted
- 1 and 1/4 cups 250g granulated sugar
- ¾ cup 75g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup 60g all-purpose flour
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and instant espresso powder until smooth and well combined.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture and whisk until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the flour to the batter, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Notes
- For an extra fudgy texture, slightly underbake the brownies – they will continue to set as they cool.
- Feel free to add chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of sea salt to the batter for added flavor and texture.
- Store any leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
