]]> Are you feeling the chocolate love yet? Today marks the fourth day on our journey to chocolate Nirvana and this one should wake your tastebuds up with a jolt! Deep, dark chocolate brownie with ground coffee beans added makes for an intense brownie experience! Hazelnut cream glaze on the top creates a coffeeshop experience you won’t want to miss. This is a serious brownie! Next time I am going to add chocolate chips I think…And I know that I saw cappuccino chips at the store the other day-those might be good as well.

This is also a moist and chewy brownie so be careful not to overbake. Take it out of the oven when slightly underdone and let cool for the best results. espresso brownie
