I made these brownies for a party and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved them. They were so easy to make, and they turned out perfectly. The mocha flavor was subtle but delicious, and the brownies were nice and fudgy. I'll definitely be making thes

Meh. The brownies were a bit too sweet for my taste, and the mocha flavor was a bit overpowering. I also found the texture to be a bit too dense. I wouldn't make these again. 2/5 stars.

These brownies were an absolute delight! The mocha flavor was rich and decadent, and the brownies themselves were perfectly fudgy. I loved the addition of the chocolate chips, which added a nice textural contrast. I'll definitely be making these agai
