Ingredients

• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 tbsp instant coffee granules
• 3 tbsp hot water
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.
2. In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee in hot water and set aside to cool slightly.
3. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and stir in sugar, vanilla extract, and the dissolved coffee mixture until well combined.
4. Whisk in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
5. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gently fold the ingredients until just combined; avoid over-mixing.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips, then pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs for a fudgy texture.
8. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before preparing the ganache.
9. For the ganache, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming but not boiling.
10. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes without stirring.
11. After 5 minutes, stir the mixture until smooth and glossy, ensuring all chocolate is melted.
12. Pour the ganache over the cooled brownies, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
13. Chill the brownies in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until the ganache is set before slicing and serving.
