Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Espresso powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk granulated sugar, brown sugar, and espresso powder into the melted butter and chocolate mixture until well combined.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and smooth.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.

Step 6

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

If using, fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with the spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the edge comes out with a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking!).

Step 10

Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 11

Lift the brownies out of the pan using the parchment overhang, slice into squares or rectangles, and serve. Enjoy your caffeinated treat!
