Ingredients

  • 100 g Dark Chocolate Melted
  • 170 g Unsalted Butter Melted
  • 100 g Light Brown Soft Sugar
  • 100 g Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Medium Free Range Eggs
  • 1 tsp Coffee Extract (OR 2 tsp instant coffee made up with a tablespoon boiling water)
  • 30 g Cocoa Powder
  • 85 g Plain Flour
  • 100 g Milk Chocolate Roughly Chopped

For the Frosting

  • 120 g Unsalted Butter Room Temperature
  • 275 g Icing Sugar
  • 1 tsp Coffee Extract (OR 2 tsp instant coffee made up with a tablespoon boiling water)
  • Caramel Drizzle to decorate

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas Mark 6. Line an 8" Square Pan with greaseproof paper.
  • In a small bowl, break up the dark chocolate and melt in the microwave in 20 second intervals, stirring in between to make sure it doesn't burn.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and both sugars. With an electric/stand mixer, go for a solid 3-5minutes so it is totally combined. Add in the eggs and coffee/coffee extract and combine again.
  • Now, add the melted dark chocolate slowly (check it first, to make sure it isn't so hot that it will cook the eggs) and combine once again. 
  • Add the flour and cocoa powder, then the chopped milk chocolate. Fold gently into the wet mixture with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Fold in the chopped chocolate. 
  • Pour the batter into the lined pan and bake for 30 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack before making the frosting.
  • Add the butter and the coffee extract/coffee to a large mixing bowl. Beat with a whisk on high for a minute to soften/combine everything.
  • Add half the icing sugar, whisk on high. Then add the remaining half and whisk everything on high until fluffy. Add icing sugar as required to meet your desired consistency. Spread over the cooled brownies, top with caramel drizzle, slice and serve!
