If you like a mocha flavor or coffee flavor with some sweetness, you're going to love these espresso brownies! There's just the right amount of coffee in them to make them extra delicious, and I still enjoy a cup of coffee on the side...or milk, too.

Cooking Time1 hr

Ingredients

9 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
3/4 cup roasted espresso beans, finely ground
3 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 3/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 large eggs

Instructions

Line bottom of a 9"x13" baking pan with parchment paper; butter generously.
Preaheat oven to 300F degrees.
In a stainless steel bowl over boiling water or double boiler, melt chocolate and butter together until smooth.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer set on low, thoroughly mix together ground coffee and sugar.
Increase speed to medium and gradually add chocolate mixture, walnuts, salt, and vanilla; beat until thoroughly combined.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour until just incorporated.
Spread batter evenly into pan.
Bake 55 to 60 minutes until just barely done; toothpick test indicates doneness (but should not be completely clean). Do not overcook!
