Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the margarine and semisweet chocolate together in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Alternatively, melt in a double boiler.
  4. Stir the instant coffee granules into the melted chocolate mixture until fully dissolved.
  5. Add the granulated sugar to the chocolate mixture and stir well. Allow to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
  6. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  10. Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Note

For best results, use high-quality semisweet chocolate to enhance the depth of flavor.

Do not overbake; this will result in dry brownies. The center should still be slightly soft when removed from the oven.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

For a vegan version, substitute the margarine with a vegan butter alternative and use flax eggs or commercial egg replacer instead of eggs. Ensure the chocolate is dairy-free.

Add chopped nuts or white chocolate chips to the batter for extra texture and flavor variation.
