Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
Butter for greasing pan
1 ¼ cups (7.5 oz.) chopped semi-sweet chocolate
½ oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 stick (4oz) unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces
1 tsp. instant coffee, dissolved in 1 Tbsp. hot water
2 large eggs
¾ cup granulated sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup unbleached all-purpose flour

These quantities are for an 8" X 8" X 2" pan serving 8-9 (I usually cut into 16 pieces)

Doubled, use a 9" X 13" X2" pan serving 12 to 16 (I usually cut into 24 pieces)
Directions:
Directions:
Position rack in middle of oven. Preheat to 375º. Line pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper letting 2 sides extend to facilitate later removal from pan. Butter the paper.

Melt the chocolates, butter and dissolved coffee on low in the microwave or over simmering water until mostly melted & then stir until smooth. Cool 5 minutes.
Beat eggs in large bowl with mixer at medium speed for 10 seconds. Add sugar, salt & vanilla & beat for 2 minutes until mixture thickens. Decrease to low & mix in the melted chocolate mixture. Add flour & continue mixing just until no white streaks of flour remain. Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake 28 minutes. The brownies will look soft.

Cool 1 hour at room temperature, then cover & refrigerate at least 5 hours or overnight. Use overhanging ends to lift brownies out of the pan to cutting board.

May be frozen in one piece if using as a cake layer, or cut into squares before freezing. Wrap well in foil or Saran and then in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is my go-to brownie recipe. I can't count the number of times people have asked for the recipe.

These brownies are moist & fudgy. Unfortunately, they taste delicious right out of the freezer too, although they are meant to be served chilled or at room temperature.
