Description

These Classic Chocolate Walnut Brownies are deeply chocolaty with flavor notes of coffee and vanilla to satisfy your most intense chocolate cravings!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons grass-fed butter, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (115 g) coconut sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon instant espresso powder, dissolved in 1 teaspoon hot water
  • 2 oz (60 g) good-quality unsweetened chocolate, melted in a double boiler or microwave and cooled slightly
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) chopped walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F; line a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with 2 pieces of parchment paper so the paper hangs over all 4 sides (and you can lift the brownies out later).
  2. Cream together the butter and sugar in a large bowl, and then beat in the eggs, vanilla, dissolved espresso, and melted chocolate.
  3. Sift in the cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, and stir to combine. Fold in the walnuts.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until the brownies are set along the outside, about 20 to 22 minutes, being careful not to over-bake. Cool completely before cutting.
  5. These can be left at room temperature overnight; the next day, transfer any leftovers to the fridge where they’ll keep for about 1 week.
