Ingredients

• Butter  - 100 gm
• Dark chocolate  -  150 gm ( chopped )
• Instant coffee powder  -  1tsp
• Flour  -  3/4 cup
• Salt  -  a pinch
• Eggs  -  3 nos
• Vanilla Extract  -  1tsp
• Sugar  -  1 cup
• Cocoa powder  -  2 tbsp

Method

• Preheat the oven to 190 degree C . Line a baking tin with aluminium foil or butter paper and keep ready.
• Take dark chocolate and butter in a bowl, place over another bowl of simmering water and melt it to a smooth texture.
• Add coffee powder, cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla and mix thoroughly.
• To this add eggs one at a time, mixing in between.
• Mix together flour and salt, gently fold this into chocolate mixture.
• Pour into prepared tin, tap to remove air bubbles. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Once done a screwier inserted into the center comes out with  wet gooey crumbs.
• Cool in tin for 10 minutes and then transfer to wire rack and cool completely.

Notes

• While melting chocolate, the bowl should not touch the boiling water. Chocolate can burn easily, so once 80% of the chocolate is melt remove the bowl from heat and mix nicely till the remaining chunks melt.
• No need to powder sugar, and no need to wait till the sugar dissolve before baking.
• Do not panic if the butter separates on adding sugar, batter will be fine in the end.
• Brownie continues to cook while out of the oven so no need to bake till you get the inserted screwier clean.
• Can add nuts if desired.
• Fill the tin only to half or preferably a little less than that. But be careful not to reduce than that.
