Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 8-inch-square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Fold two 16-inch pieces of foil lengthwise to measure 7 inches wide. Fit one sheet in bottom of greased pan, pushing it into corners and up sides of pan (overhang will help in removal of baked brownies). Fit second sheet in pan in same manner, perpendicular to first sheet. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray.
- In medium heatproof bowl set over pan of almost-simmering water, melt chocolates and butter, stirring occasionally until mixture is smooth. Whisk in cocoa & espresso until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt in medium bowl until combined, about 15 seconds. Whisk warm chocolate mixture into egg mixture; then stir in flour with wooden spoon until just combined. Pour mixture into prepared pan, spread into corners, and level surface with rubber spatula; bake until slightly puffed and toothpick inserted in center comes out with small amount of sticky crumbs clinging to it, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool on wire rack to room temperature, about 2 hours, then remove brownies from pan using foil handles. Cut into 1-inch squares and serve. (Do not cut brownies until ready to serve; brownies can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated up to 5 days.).

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter an 8-inch square pyrex pan. Place chopped chocolate in a mixing bowl; set aside.
- 2. In a small glass bowl, melt butter in microwave (take it out before it starts bubbling.) Pour butter over the chocolate and let stand for 30 seconds. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Sift in sugar and cocoa powder.
- 3. With a wooden spoon, beat in mascarpone, eggs and vanilla, Espresso vodka and mixing until smooth. Gently fold in flour and salt. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Place into preheated oven and bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.
- 4. Place pan on cooling rack and let brownies cool 10 to 15 minutes while you make the ganache.
- 5. Place chopped chocolate in a mixing bowl. In a small saucepan, bring the cream and butter to just below boiling point, over medium heat. Pour this hot mixture over the chocolate with the espresso vodka and let stand for 30 seconds, then stir until smooth. Pour ganache over brownies while still warm, and spread to cover evenly.
- 6. Let ganache firm up before cutting. It's best to refrigerate them until quite firm. Once the ganache is firm and the brownies have been cut, they do not need to be kept in the refrigerator.
TRIPLE-CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO BROWNIES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 F with a rack in the lower middle position. Spray an 8x8-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line the pan with aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on opposing sides so you can lift the brownies out easily once they're baked. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Add the semisweet (or bittersweet) chocolate, the unsweetened chocolate, and the butter to a medium heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water and, stirring occasionally, melt until everything is smooth. Whisk in the cocoa powder and espresso until incorporated. Set the bowl aside so the mixture can cool slightly. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt until combined, about 15 seconds. Add the warm chocolate mixture to the egg mixture and whisk to combine. Finally, stir in the flour with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon just until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared baking ban, spreading evenly with a rubber spatula to cover the bottom of the pan. Bake the brownies for about 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. (Do not over bake, or the brownies will dry out.) Transfer the pan to a wire rack and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. Use the foil to lift the brownies out of the pan and slice before serving.

Add flour mixture, beat at medium speed until well blended. Stir in vanilla, walnuts and dark chocolate. Spoon batter into prepped pan spreading evenly. 5) Bake at 325 F for 38-40 mins. Cool Completely in pan on a wire rack. Cover and chill at least 2 hours. 6) Carefully invert brownies from pan, using overlapping foil as handles, remove foil.

Tips:
- To achieve the perfect fudgy texture, it's crucial to whisk the eggs and sugar until they are thick and pale. This process, known as ribboning, ensures that the brownies have a rich and decadent consistency.
- Do not overmix the brownie batter once the dry ingredients have been added. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense texture, lacking the desired fudginess.
- To create a crisp and crackly brownie top, sprinkle a generous amount of granulated sugar over the batter before baking. This simple addition adds a delightful textural contrast to the soft and chewy interior.
- For a more intense chocolate flavor, use a combination of unsweetened and semisweet chocolate. This combination provides a balanced sweetness without overpowering the cocoa taste.
- If you're a coffee lover, consider adding a shot of espresso or strongly brewed coffee to the brownie batter. This enhances the chocolate flavor and adds a subtle hint of bitterness that complements the sweetness.
- To ensure even baking, it's important to use a baking pan that is properly greased and lined with parchment paper. This prevents the brownies from sticking and makes them easier to remove from the pan.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely before cutting and serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the texture to set, resulting in a more satisfying and delicious experience.

With careful attention to detail and a few simple tips, you can create mouthwatering chocolate espresso brownies that will impress your friends and family.
