Brownies

I love chocolate! Have I said that before? These brownies come together so quickly and easily, you’ll be saying ‘why have I ever even bothered with boxed brownie mix?’   

These brownies are fudgey and ever so chocolatey! The {optional} coffee in them are the perfect match and help enhance the rich chocolate flavor I love!
