Espresso Brownies
1 tablespoon of espresso coffee powder
3oz unsweetened chocolate
4oz (½ cup) butter
2 eggs
7oz superfine sugar
½ teaspoonful of vanilla extract
½ cup (2oz) all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon of baking powder
Pinch of salt
Start by greasing and flouring an 8 inch x 8 inch baking pan or
alternatively line the sides and base of the pan with parchment
paper or aluminum foil. Then preheat the oven to 350°F.
Next break the eggs into a bowl, add the sugar and the vanilla
extract and beat to mix. Then sift the flour and baking powder into
another bowl and add the salt.
Then break the chocolate into pieces and put the pieces together
with the butter and the espresso coffee powder into a heavy-based
saucepan and heat gently. Stir until melted and smooth.
Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool a little before
adding the beaten egg and sugar, beat well then, stirring well to
mix, add the sifted ingredients.
Finally, pour the brownie mixture into the prepared pan and bake
for about 25 minutes or until the espresso brownie begins to shrink
from the sides of the pan but the middle is still soft and deliciously
gooey.
Leave to cool in the pan before cutting the espresso brownies into
little squares. Scrumptious.
