Espresso Brownies

This recipe is a twist on the regular brownies adding an espresso kick. It is a recipe featured in my new book The Oysterville Sewing Circle.

Makes 16

½ cup unsalted
butter

8 ounces
bittersweet chocolate, chopped

1 ½ cups sugar

2 Tablespoons
instant espresso powder

½ teaspoon salt

4 eggs

1 teaspoon
vanilla

¾ cup all-purpose
flour

Preheat oven to
350°F. Grease an 8×8 baking dish and set aside.

In
a heatproof bowl, melt chocolate and butter over a double boiler (or in the
microwave) until fully melted, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool for 10
minutes.

Once cooled,
whisk in sugar, espresso powder, and salt. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Stir
in the flour just until mixed. Pour into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 40-45
minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist
crumbs attached. Let cool, then cut into 16 pieces.
