Directions
-
in a saucepot over a low flame, melt the sugar and butter together. Once melted, add the cocoa powder and espresso powder.
-
preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. also butter a 9x9 brownie/cake pan. (I use a round one because I don't have a square).
-
once the ingredients above are melted together, turn the heat off, and wait for it to cool a little. Once sufficiently cool, add the vanilla extract, then the eggs, one by one, beating them in so its fully incorporated.
-
add flour, again whisking the flour in slowly so that it is fully incorporated.
-
pour the batter into the buttered cake pan. To your liking, sprinkle sea salt on top, so that it is evenly distributed.
-
Place in oven, in the middle rack. Bake for approximately 25 minutes.
