Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar (packed)
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 60 milliliters Strong brewed espresso (cooled)
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 120 grams Macadamia nuts (coarsely chopped and roasted)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang for easy removal.
Step 2
Melt the butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method), stirring until smooth. Alternatively, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between. Let the mixture cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and brown sugar with the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.
Step 4
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and brewed espresso until smooth.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt to remove any lumps.
Step 6
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Mix only until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Step 7
Fold in the chopped and roasted macadamia nuts, reserving a handful for sprinkling on top.
Step 8
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the reserved macadamia nuts over the top.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake for extra fudginess.
Step 10
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out.
Step 11
Cut into 12 squares and enjoy these decadent mocha macadamia nut brownies!
