Chocolate Espresso Brownies

Recipe Ingredients

Let's dive into the delicious components that make these Chocolate Espresso Brownies so incredibly rich and irresistible.

Brownie Mix: This is your foundation for easy brownie baking. This premium mix provides the perfect blend of cocoa, flour, sugar, and leavening, ensuring a consistently fudgy and delicious brownie base. It's the secret to a quick and simple brownie recipe without measuring a ton of ingredients.

Instant Espresso Coffee: The dry instant espresso doesn't just add a coffee flavor; it enhances the chocolate, making it taste even richer and more intense. It's what gives these espresso brownies their deep, complex flavor profile.

Chopped Walnuts: Walnuts add a wonderful textural contrast to the fudgy brownies.

Semisweet Chocolate Chips: These chips melt into gooey pockets of chocolatey goodness throughout the brownies, adding extra richness and a luxurious texture.

Other Ingredients You’ll Need: Water, vegetable oil, egg, chocolate-covered expresso beans (if desired)

How to Store Chocolate Espresso Brownies

To keep your delicious Chocolate Espresso Brownies fresh and perfectly fudgy, here's how to store them.

Room Temperature

Once the brownies have cooled completely, store them in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Refrigerator

If you prefer a firmer, chewier brownie or want to extend their shelf life, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to 1 week.

Freezer

Once completely cooled, cut them into individual squares. Wrap each brownie tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe airtight container or heavy-duty freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. When you're ready for a treat, simply remove a frozen brownie and let it thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
