Fudgy Brownies: coffee flavoured

These are great brownies they dont taste like butter or biscuit when you eat and my friends would ask me does this have coffee in it. My intention by adding coffee was to bring out the chocolate flavour not to make the end user feel the coffee. But it turned out great the taste contrast between coffee and chocolate works quite well. And make sure you line your tin before pouring the mixture and leave some extra baking paper on the sides this will help you to pull out the brownies after baking. Also you can spray your tin with oil before lining that will help the baking paper to stick on the inner surface of the tin.






Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • 100 grams of bittersweet chocolate (I used 85%)
  • 100 grams of milk chocolate
  • 200 grams of chocolate is when chopped in small chunks 1 1/3 cup chocolate
  • 4 tbsp very strong coffee
  • 1 Cup of Granulated Sugar
  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 4 tbsp coconut oil
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cups flour
  • ¼ tsp of Salt
  • 10 grams of vanilla powder (you can use vanilla extract)



  1. Line your brownie tin with a baking sheet to make the sheet stick to the tin spray your tin with oil before lining.
  2. Set your oven to 180 CC/360 F.
  3. Melt the chocolate in a bowl by placing the bowl on top of a pot with  boiling water.
  4. Mix the room temperature butter, coconut oil and olive oil and sugar with a whisk until sugar and butter are incorporated do not use an electric mixer you don't want to end up with a foamy texture brownies should be dense.
  5. Add the egg to the mixture and keep beating with the whisk
  6. Add the coffee and vanilla powder keep beating
  7. Add the flour and cocoa powder whisk until everything is incorporated
  8. Add the melted chocolate in to the mixture keep mixing
  9. Pour the mixture to the previously lined tin and bake it for 25-30 mins
  10. The Brownie will be cooked when there is a cracked thin surface on top
