Espresso Chocolate Brownies

We measure. You bake.

What is Love + Sugar's Espresso Chocolate B Bake-at-Home Recipe all about?

For those who believe there is no such thing as too much chocolate.

These brownies are rich, fudgy and intensely chocolatey, with espresso added to deepen and amplify the chocolate flavor. The result is the kind of brownie that satisfies a serious chocolate craving with just one bite.

They're decadent enough for dessert, simple enough for a weekend baking project, and delicious enough that you may want to keep the whole batch for yourself.

Rich chocolate. Bold espresso. Pure brownie indulgence.

Here’s why our brownies are a cut above the rest:

  • Inside the Box: Granulated sugar, Signature cocoa blend, Flour blend, Chocolate chip combo, and a plastic knife.
  • You'll add: 5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, 2 large eggs (cold), 1 large egg yolk (cold), 2.6 ounces (1/3 cup) vegetable oil, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  • Equipment needed: 1 microwave safe bowl, 1 (8-inch) square metal pan, parchement paper, whisk, spatula, toothpick, measuring cup and spoons.
