Do you pack the brown sugar when you measure it for this recipe? My grandma would never use brown sugar unless I packed it tight in the measuring cup. It would have to come out of the cup with a big indentation like the cup to make her happy enough to keep cooking.

As soon as I read that there is coffee in this recipe, I saved it. I recently made chocolate Christmas cookies with coffee in them and they were the best chocolate cookies I have ever eaten. The coffee gave them such a rich and intense flavor. I am almost sure it will be the same with these brownines!
